About this episode

This week I’m joined by Frank Anderson, Harvard-trained psychiatrist, psychotherapist and one of the leading voices in trauma treatment, for a conversation that goes far beyond traditional therapy. What we explore together: • Why trauma treatment was never meant to be a single method, and what 11 years of psychoanalysis taught him about its limits • The viral “does trauma live in the brain or the body” debate, and what his close friend Bessel van der Kolk actually meant by The Body Keeps the Score • Why attraction is often about unhealed wounding, not love, and how it shaped his own first marriage • What it actually looks like to heal trauma through the body, not just by talking about it • Why he believes we’re entering “the era of the body,” and what that means for AI and disconnection Love, Sarah Ann 💛 My book, Healthy Shouldn’t Be This Hard: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Healthy-Shouldnt-Be-This-Hard-ebook/dp/B0G1DHNRV5 This episode is sponsored by: POLSEN HEALTH: The compassionate health tracker.
