Krystal and Gabby

Have you ever thought about the little traumas and big traumas that make up your life story? Do you ever feel like your hard times are harder than everyone else’s or not hard enough? 

In this episode, Gabby and Krystal talk about Little T and Big T Trauma. The smaller and bigger traumas that make up our lives. They discuss the differences between these traumas and how no matter how “big” or “small” your trauma may be it is a valid, valued, and a very real part of your life experience. 

They dive into parts of their own trauma and compare inactive versus active trauma. They explain the importance of not getting caught in the web of comparison. Including comparing to the way others handle hard times or even the way they handled a previous hard time. 

They talk about the importance of hope in both of their unique journeys. Plus how you can create hope in your own Little T and Big T traumas throughout your life.

No matter how you find yourself, Gabby and Krystal want you to know no matter how big, or how small your trauma/hard time/painful experience may be, you belong here. As Krystal says in this episode, “We all have it worse.”
