In this special, unedited long-form conversation, Will Rezin and I sit down for the very first time. This chat started off casual, talking about our favourite shows, life, etc., and then it quickly evolved into a deep, two-hour dive into the history, frustrations, and future of the new traumatology.
From trading wild stories about executing biological first-aid in high-stress environments to dissecting the flawed nature of modern human domestication, and this work being the science of shamanism, we uncover an uncanny number of parallels in our personal and professional journeys. We challenge the clinical "checklist" approach to trauma, advocating instead for an appreciation of the human body as a living, holographic process.
