What on earth were we going to name this show? We covered so many topics from post traumatic stress disorder to the Parkland High School shooting that happened one year from the date this show is airing - Valentine's Day. We also talked about how healing from trauma of any kind is a unique journey for every person. In a society with an attention span of about 30 seconds, traumatic events are forgotten quickly by the public but NOT the people who were there.

Join our host Kristin Sunanta Walker and Amy O'Neill for an uplifting and insightful discussion.

After being thrust into the role of Boston Marathon Bombing Survivor, Amy C. O’Neill has turned her crisis and recovery into her cause. In her new chosen role as Resilience Expert and Motivational Speaker, Amy shares her life lesson of rebounding with individuals in order to help them learn how to go through and overcome their own personal trauma; and with professional responders who deal with expected and unexpected trauma on the job; as well as with groups from around the world so that they may learn to continue in the aftermath of community trauma and adversity.

Having built a well-respected career in mental health counseling over almost three decades, Amy has intense breadth and depth of experience in both institutional and private practice. In addition to her dedication to helping others, she prides herself on being a life long learner and athlete. A former D-1 NCAA lacrosse player who went on to methodically train and successfully complete three Ironman Triathlons, and the prestigious Boston Marathon five times, Amy knows how mental and physical focus can lead to success. As a wife, mother, daughter and sister Amy has strong family ties that are important to her life story as well. She also works with the THE NATIONAL MASS VIOLENCE AND VICTIMIZATION RESOURCE CENTER helping survivors of mass violence use their voice during their healing process.
