Trauma is a heavy burden to carry, especially when it remains unresolved. In this episode of 'Conscious Recovery', TJ Woodward and Jeremy Miller sit down with Camille Hildebrand, CEO of Avery Lane For Women, to tackle this delicate yet crucial topic. Camille brings her wealth of experience to the table, shedding light on how trauma—whether physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, or vicarious—can leave deep wounds that often lead to addiction as a coping mechanism.
This conversation is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Camille explains that recognizing addiction as a strategy to cope with trauma can be the first step toward healing. It’s not about blaming oneself but understanding the underlying issues that drive addictive behaviors.
