I'm super excited for this special episode brought to you in participation with Podcasthon. This is the worlds' largest podcast charity initiative, bringing together podcasters globally to raise awareness for important causes!

And today, I have the great pleasure of introducing you to Matt Pappas and Athena Peterson of CPTSD Foundation.

CPTSD Foundation is all about bridging the healing gap in treatment and service options in order to end the cycle of complex relational trauma by providing the safety, life skills, relational education, and reparative experiences a survivor needs so they can create new habits and experience optimum health in every area of life.

When we are going through something hurtful, distressing, disappointing, we exacerbate the pain by falling into the trap of believing that the distress will continue indefinitely and that this one experience will have a detrimental impact on our lives.

But studies have shown that we are actually poor at predicting how present events will affect our future emotional states and tend to overestimate the future impact of present negative events.

This practice will help you connect with your future self and gain perspective about your current situation.
