#DiscomfortSession: No Trust. No Truth. What Trauma Informed Really Means.

What if your discomfort was the key to real change? Our Discomfort Sessions are all about leaning into the conversations that matter most - even when they’re awkward, challenging, or confronting. In this safe, guided space, we’ll explore a thought‑provoking topic that pushes us to question our assumptions, listen to different perspectives, and reflect on our own.

Through open discussion, shared stories, and respectful dialogue, you’ll have the chance to unpack tricky subjects without fear of judgement. It’s not about having all the answers - it’s about creating the courage and curiosity to ask better questions and truly listen.

This Month’s Topic – No Trust, No Truth: What Trauma‑Informed Really Means

“Trauma‑informed” is a term that gets thrown around a lot - but what does it actually mean in practice? And why is trust the foundation of every genuine trauma‑informed approach?

In this session, we’ll explore the real meaning behind the label, moving past checklists and buzzwords to look at how trauma impacts trust, communication, and relationships. We’ll discuss what it takes to create safe spaces where people feel able to tell the truth, and how organisations and communities can put trauma‑informed principles into practice in ways that actually matter.

Whether you’re working in community settings, leading teams, or simply looking to deepen your understanding, this conversation will challenge assumptions and offer fresh insight into what “trauma‑informed” really looks like when done right.
