Niki also shares how each individual experiences traumatic events differently, and the concept of inherited trauma and how that can shadow families for generations.
Additionally, we talk about the connection between movement and mental health in kids and teens, that movement can be simple, that it doesn't require a class, and she shares pointers on accessing the right support and resources so you can get started.
