Today we’re diving into something that’s often talked about but not always understood: PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. You’ve probably heard the term, but what does it actually mean? Who does it affect? And what does healing really look like? Whether you’ve experienced trauma yourself, know someone who has, or are just curious to learn more, this episode is for you. We’re breaking down PTSD in a real and accessible kind of way—talking symptoms, stigma, and support, with insights from expert, R. Nicholas Carleton, PhD from the University of Regina. Grab a coffee, put on your favourite headphones and let’s dive in.
