The most direct and thorough deep dive into what people that have experienced trauma (and us current / former partners) face so we can try to wrap our heads around what is going on. Grateful for the insights.

Topic is great but the monotone production like she’s reading a script and is bored out of her mind caused me to unfollow

I found this podcast about a year ago while searching for answers on a term a friend had casually thrown out. I listened to a few episodes and found so much relief in the humor, the relatability, and the education. I subscribed, worked on myself, and stepped away feeling nice and healed. Cut...Read full review »

This is a great resource with tons of useful information. I really appreciate that this exists. My one complaint is that the host has a constant sarcastic/gallows humor tone with everything she says. That style is great entertainment, but combined with how densely packed with information this...Read full review »

I’m 51 years old and I have felt out of place my entire life. Turning to drugs and alcohol to cope. Your first podcast made me understand that I’m not the only person that feels this way. Even though I’ve accomplished a lot in life I’ve always felt like an impostor and then I’m lost. Now I feel...Read full review »

I’m 64 and CPTSD has disrupted my entire life - an entire lifetime of decades. Mental hospitals, rests, therapy, religion, pills - and little relief. I’m 64 and my health is declining and I have made little progress with dim outlook on my future. I have no friends - I tried and they find out and...Read full review »

Jess so beautifully and vulnerably shares her healing journey, her learnings, as they are arising moment to moment for her. All the gorgeous, messy leaps forward and two steps back. She has helped me to have so much compassion for my own messy, complex healing journey. I’d recommend joining her...Read full review »

Great trauma education/ strategies to overcome!

I cannot lie, she feels like the type of friend I need. I struggle with C-PTSD & listening to this podcast makes me feel seen & heard. I’m deeply grateful to have found this podcast. She says everything you need to hear & her radical way of just stating the truth, I applaud her...Read full review »

I have been going through anxiety, depression and much more for at least 10 years (that I’m aware of), and have just recently gotten into researching Cptsd. I am blown away by the accuracy of this to myself. I am currently reading a book about it and have found a lot of comfort in the fact that I...Read full review »

Like 10 minutes in and it feels like I’m listening to the inside of my own brain…

I have been listening for a while now. She is hilarious, love her quirkiness and intelligent, helpful and amazing sessions.
nuggabug via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/05/22
Jess articulates exactly what I have been living with my whole life. Long ago I was diagnosed with CPTSD but was so focused on the anxiety/panic and weeks and weeks of hiding in my bed or "knocking my self out" so I could sleep away the pain if I had to wake up. Which I always did,...Read full review »
Autumn Flew via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/22
I have had so many podcasts explain, in very bland “wiki how to fix ptsd step by step” narrative, what this world looks like through my eyes. I am so grateful to have this snarky, brilliant, truth telling motherFAWKER give me a hard slap across the face reminder that indeed- everyone is damaged....Read full review »

Jess has made me feel seen and heard. Complex Trauma Recovery; We Are Traumatized M***********s is playing a huge role in my recovery. This is THE podcast for traumatized mofos.
Halaforadala via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/22
I’ve listened to the first 5 episodes so far and just cried in validation. I’m so appreciative for a non-religious view point with actual scientific facts instead of bible verses. She snarky and real I’m looking forward to finishing this and joining the patreon
jennyfrmtheblock801 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/22
Love the combo of brain science & psychology. Host is sassy and intelligent. 5 stars!!
carefullistener123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/22
Finally a podcast that shares academic neuroscience in a way that keeps you intrigued and hopeful. And she is real. She’s going through it with us. Thank you Jess. ✌🏼
delsan19 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/07/22
You have to be a hero basically to continue to strive for your own future as she is doing while simultaneously producing book-worthy academic level content for the good of others like me. May the Lord Jesus be near you and bless you this tough holiday season, Jess.
YTim4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/21
I mean come on, I’m trying to better myself with these self-help podcasts, not fill my head with bad language. Why the need to ruin something that could be helpful? It’s much easier to leave out the bad words. When a mental health professional uses bad language, it makes me think so less of them,...Read full review »

I really like when the concepts are broken down graphically, really aids my understanding
blueTealSquad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
The trauma content is really relevent to people in recovery
catPerson5667 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/21
I appreciate most of the advice and input the host has given, but I became pretty put off when in an episode she stated in one episode that “medications should only be short term” and “don’t rely on them forever” (paraphrasing). I get that’s her stance on it, but I truly believe that POV is...Read full review »

Great show. So much useful info and I love love love the host!
Bublgirl via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/07/21
Everyone who’s dealing with trauma needs to listen to this. I love how Jess breaks things down, doesn’t over complicate things.. can’t wait to finish the entire series
vitamindanproductions via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/21
So relatable and easy to understand. Thank you!
ANE2993 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/21
Majority of the speaking covers an analytic and enlightened perspective. Meaning lots of “you’re messed up”, and nothing really about how to fix your thoughts. I’d like to see more prescriptive thoughts on how to heal and fix yourself.
mj09387474792 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/21
I was shaking, this is amazing! Had no idea how I was being used by my mother in law and the validation is amazing. I can’t believe how much I relate to all of your podcasts and I’m so happy I found you’re show!
saaaaaangie. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/21
I really appreciate these informed and well framed and trauma informed perspectives from lived experience. The blogger is a very talented writer, as the scripts are always on point. Audio is an easier format too, so it’s great. I am so tired of professionals as podcasters (doctors and...Read full review »

This podcast was what I needed to finally make a move towards saving myself instead of other people who did not want to change. Thanks to Jess and her guests for being brave enough to do this thing!
olovbolt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/10/21
Insight after insight into CPTSD, delivered with dry and irreverent humour. It’s like being in a group project with the smartest girl in the class doing all the research, but if you try even a little bit you get an A. Can’t recommend the blanket fort (Patreon) enough either.
ZingBingDing via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/19/21
We are lucky to live in a time when CPTSD is recognised and a lot of research is available, but jeeeeez that research can be dry. Jess provides the facts, the research, real-life experience and a liberal dose of wit and humour so that the info makes sense to us in everyday terms. I GET IT the...Read full review »

It took me decades to uncover and give voice to the traumatized and terrorized child inside and my healing continues to this day. Thanks...Read full review »

Wow
Amazing information on narcissistic mother. I love these, keep them coming. Your “blacksheep sis”.
carolina573986293273937/ via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/06/21
Jess’ podcast is the first place I have found that talks about all the stuff I never knew how to verbalize. I see that my experience was real and that others also understand. Jess’ vulnerability plus data driven approach really helps me on the healing journey. Thank you
LanaMeow via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/21
I found this podcast and I absolutely love the down-to-earth approach. I like the way she tells things like it is instead of a glossed over, dull, old school way to talk about mental health I hear on so many other podcasts. Sometimes you need it by the book and other times you just want to listen...Read full review »

Jess shares her journey through life with complex trauma (cptsd) in a raw, unpretentious, sarcastic, funny, emotional and REAL way. Can really help to hear someone to relate to! Especially if you are new to all of this.

I just finished listening to complex trauma andInsecure attachments. I am a guy and, wow, I felt like you were inside my head eloquently yet viscerally describing who I am.

I love this show and find it so helpful for learning about CPTSD. The only thing is, I wonder if maybe the music is too intense? It makes me jump whenever I hear it and I scramble to turn it down. As we know, a lot of people with CPTSD have amped-up nervous systems that can be easily overwhelmed...Read full review »

Oh dang. Super relatable and informative, and on such a broad and relevant range of subject matter. Thank you thank you for your work and for your authenticity and vulnerability... but, like, maybe get out of my brain?! It’s spooky. 🖤🙃
