Norm Quantz, author of Trauma No More: A Six-Step Recovery Guide
Norm Quantz & I discuss:
- How much you understand yourself helps you understand others.
- It’s why you things.
- It’s not how you hear things, it’s what you hear in things that matters.
- The power and control aspect is the most important thing in a relationship.
- Power is the potential that you have; control is the use of that power in your actions.
- Our early traumas set in place how we will relate.
- Trauma is the distance between what you expected to happen and what actually happened.
Norm Quantz encourages homeschool parents:
- Know what impact your power & control dynamics have on your relationships so you are able to better understand how other people are impacting you. They often respond to what they sense from you.
- Understand your reaction to trauma and what story you created around that reaction.
- We can use the six-steps of Trauma No More to engage our children so they feel heard and to understand how their trauma feelings affect them.
