What is the true impact of trauma on caregivers who don’t prioritize nursing their own wounds?
In this episode of From Survivor to Thriver, we sat down with Dr. Omar Reda to talk about the intense trauma you can experience as a wounded caregiver and what happens when you don’t address it. We also discuss the journey of refugees traveling to a foreign land, the mental health of immigrants, collective trauma, burnout, and soul care.
Omar has some profound insight into life as an immigrant and what it truly is to be human and he shares why we all need to look deeper and seek care for our soul when we need it.
Dr. Omar Reda is a world-renowned, Harvard-trained trauma expert, the author of several books, including his most recent book, The Wounded Healer: The Pain and Joy of Caregiving, and the founder of Untangled, a healing initiative that aims to break the cycles of trauma-related dysfunction through connection, support, education, empowerment, and the mastery of healthy coping skills.
In today’s episode, we cover:
- What ignited Omar’s passion to be the voice of the voiceless
- How trauma impacts our lives and the impact of human connection
- The impact of Islamophobia on the mental health of immigrants
- The importance of dropping the labels and embracing curiosity
- What happens if you don’t nurse your own wounds
