This season we are interviewing people we think are next-level in light of Ryan's new book called Leveling Up: 12 Questions to Elevate your Personal and Professional Development. Today's guest is the pastor, speaker, and chaplain of the Milwaukee Bucks, Ken Lock. Trauma and drama can have a significant impact on an individual's well-being, but the good news is it is possible to thrive after experiencing these events. In this podcast, we will explore different strategies and tools that can aid in the healing process and help individuals move forward in a positive direction. We will begin by discussing the importance of self-care and self-compassion. This includes activities such as exercise, mindfulness practices, and therapy. These can be incredibly powerful in helping individuals process their emotions and build resilience. We will also touch on the importance of finding a supportive community, whether that be through therapy groups, support groups, or close friends and family. Having a strong support system can provide a sense of safety and validation, which is crucial in the healing process. Additionally, we will discuss the importance of finding meaning and purpose post-trauma. This can be achieved through hobbies, volunteer work, or even a career change. Having a sense of purpose can give individuals a sense of direction and fulfillment. Overall, this podcast will provide a comprehensive look at various strategies and tools that can aid in the healing process and help individuals thrive after experiencing trauma and drama.
