Episode 5: Moving from Trauma to Trust with Rachael Maddox
“People have resistance to being needy or to feeling so vulnerable but this needy vulnerability is the foundation of your humanness. You will never escape it. So you might as well embrace it.”
-Rachael Maddox, The Everything Belongs Podcast
