Core Human Yearnings and Trauma: Insights from Todd Brossart

Your pain, if you've experienced trauma, has wisdom. So the choice here is not about whether or not to have pain. Your choice is whether or not to live a meaningful life.
Ever wondered what truly makes us tick? In this episode of 'Is This All There Is?', Todd Brossart dives into the six core human yearnings that shape our lives. Through the lens of acceptance and commitment therapy, Todd explains how trauma can disrupt these essential desires. Have you ever felt like something's missing, even when everything seems fine? That's coherence calling. Or maybe you’ve struggled with finding your place in the world—orientation and belonging are at play here.
Todd breaks down these concepts and more, offering practical advice on how to navigate the impact of trauma on our deepest needs. He also touches on the importance of setting meaningful goals and warns against the pitfalls of perfectionism. His message is clear: prioritize authenticity over safety to lead a fulfilling life. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand themselves better and live more meaningfully.
