A few weeks ago I was invited to be a speaker for a Courageous Conversation event hosted by Awake, A Catholic non-profit whose mission "is to awaken our community to the full reality of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, work for transformation, and foster healing for all who have been wounded."
Let me add that your particular niche (which is very impactful for me) is being able to combine the trauma lens with Church teaching so seamlessly. Your background as a catechist lends itself so effectively to your vocation now. 🔥
Your comments are really thoughtful and express exactly the work I’m trying to do. It’s encouraging to hear you name it, because it means I’m doing something right. Thank you so much!!
This was an extremely powerful episode for me, Paul! The entire conversation was great, but it was particularly healing for me to hear you speak because it’s so rare to hear a CATHOLIC voice speak in such a trauma-informed way about spiritual abuse and trauma. Thank you for sharing your experience and charism of teaching!
