info_outlineIn this episode of Becoming You, Rebecca Cafiero sits down with award-winning journalist, author, and documentarian Charlie Webster to explore how unprocessed trauma impacts our lives—and why confronting it is the key to healing.
Charlie has endured childhood abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and even a near-death experience. Yet, instead of letting trauma define her, she has dedicated her life to understanding its effects, advocating for survivors, and helping others heal. In her book, Why It’s Okay to Talk About Trauma, she blends deeply personal experiences with extensive research, breaking down why we struggle to talk about trauma, the unhealthy coping mechanisms we develop—like perfectionism and overworking—and the tools we need to process and move forward.
This conversation is raw, real, and deeply inspiring. If you or someone you love has experienced trauma, this episode will give you hope, perspective, and actionable steps toward healing.
What You’ll Learn In This Episode:
✨ The fear of judgment, shame, and why society avoids difficult conversations.
✨ Understanding acute, chronic, and complex trauma and how they shape us.
✨ From hyper-independence to trust issues, recognizing the patterns.
✨ Why real healing happens through relationships and vulnerability.
✨ Facing childhood abuse, sexual assault, and the loss of friends to suicide.
✨ How sharing your story can help you take back control and stop minimizing your pain.
