Despite all of this, you're now a trauma doctor and you're a healer, and you're not somebody who looks at yourself with any self-pity. You've talked about how growth is possible.
What comes to mind when you hear the word 'refugee'? In this moving episode of 'The Story of Our Trauma', Dr. Shauna Springer sits down with Dr. Katya Burdo, a clinical psychologist who fled Russia at just 14 years old. Dr. Burdo's early life was marked by relentless persecution due to her religious beliefs and aspirations for a better life. At 16, she and her family finally made it to the United States, but the journey was far from over.
Adapting to a new life brought its own set of challenges, often overlooked in discussions about refugees. Dr. Burdo's story is a powerful testament to resilience and the human spirit's capacity for healing. She opens up about the trauma of immigration, the struggle to adapt, and her eventual path to becoming a trauma doctor. Her experiences shed light on the often-hidden emotional battles that refugees face, offering hope and insight for anyone grappling with their own adversities.
Tune in for an episode that not only explores the hardships but also celebrates the strength required to overcome them.
