Finding Sanctuary: Hannah Barnard's Journey Through 'Adult Tantrums'

Just because parasites and liars, users, abusers and disordered individuals exist doesn't mean we should allow them into our lives or to take over. Allow me to introduce you to my concept of kakatopia.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to find peace after experiencing trauma? In this episode of 'The Trauma of Abuse', Hannah Barnard takes us deeper into her creative writing journey with 'Adult Tantrums'. This isn't just any story; it's a raw and real account of her own struggles with abuse and the emotional fallout that follows.
Hannah doesn't shy away from the gritty details, from the cruelty she faced as an adult to the insidious nature of entrapment and domination. But it's not all dark; she also introduces us to Kakatopia, her imaginative concept of a sanctuary for survivors. It's a place where those who've suffered can find solace and strength. Alongside this, she shares practical strategies that have helped her cope, like The Freedom Programme by Pat Craven, meditation, and yoga.
These aren't just buzzwords; they're lifelines that have provided Hannah with much-needed stability. She also talks about the toxic environments that can perpetuate abuse and stresses the importance of creating safe spaces for oneself. By the end of the episode, you'll feel inspired to take control of your own healing journey and find your personal sanctuary. Tune in for a candid, heartfelt exploration of survival and recovery.
