In the final episode of our Emotionally Healthy Neighboring series, we explore how to navigate trauma with compassion and care, featuring special guest Eliza Huie, a licensed professional counselor and author of Trauma Aware: A Christian's Guide to Providing Help and Care. Eliza explains the difference between trauma and suffering, offering practical guidance on how to respond when neighbors share difficult experiences. She emphasizes the importance of being present over offering quick fixes and shares how to build trust and compassion while maintaining healthy emotional boundaries.
We also discuss how to practice empathy and validation without overstepping, and how to safeguard our own emotional health while supporting others. Eliza’s wisdom equips us to be a compassionate presence, showing love to our neighbors even in the hardest of times. Join us for this impactful conversation on how to be there for others while maintaining emotional and spiritual grace.
