Conversation 1: Healing Gifted Shame

Welcome to our first podcast episode. In this episode, Jennifer Harvey Sallin & Karin Eglinton explore how gifted trauma can result in feeling shame about our unusual minds. Many adults with gifted-specific trauma also feel shame about the need to heal and redo more basic developmental tasks in the healing process. Healing is a complex journey, one that requires us to have self-compassion, clear self-understanding (including clear understanding of our gifted minds and our gifted-specific needs). With clear self-understanding and self-compassion, we heal our shame, and can fully embrace our unique healing process.  Resources and links mentioned in this episode can be found at: www.intergifted.com/conversations-gifted-trauma To support our podcast, consider making a donation at: www.paypal.me/intergifted __   More information about gifted adult development is found at: www.intergifted.com

Om Podcasten

"Gifted trauma" is the trauma that gifted (highly intelligent) people can experience when ridiculed, ignored, rejected, misunderstood, out-of-place, left out or left behind, pressured, or excessively groomed as a result of their unusual minds. Their high mental complexity also affects their experience of more common traumas in important ways. In this podcast, Jennifer Harvey Sallin, psychologist & founder of www.intergifted.com, explores all this and the many paths to healing for gifted adults, with her guests.
