Injury not Illness/Community Recovery

  • Summary

  • This is a unique and interesting podcast episode. We planned to have this episode with the mayor of Medicine Hat Alberta Canada, the city in which Trent, Jeremy and Amy reside. Mayor Linnsie Clark was having some technical difficulties and we weren't sure why she was not joining us at the designated time. So Trent and I began a conversation about something that had been on our minds in terms of understanding trauma as an injury and not an illness. The first part of the podcast explores this idea then our mayor connected with us within the middle of the podcast and we transition from there into talking about Community recovery and how connection and Community is Central to our Wellness as humans

    Mayor Clark first took office in 2021 as covid restrictions began to lift and has guided our community through a broader social recovery from the mental health effects of the pandemic.
