My guest this go around is Lauren Auer(hour). She\u2019s a mom of two, military wife, and a trauma counselor. Her practical, scientific approach to her work is interesting in and of itself, but the fact that she takes what she learns and shares it via blogs and social media to a huge audience, is amazing. We need more people who care about others and have the capacity to help, to have their voices amplified. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Lauren. <\/span><\/span><span data-slate-node=\"text\"
