Workshop Overview

We’d love for you to join us for an online workshop led by Peer Practice Lived Experience Lead, Milly Taylor.

Together, we’ll explore ways to build deeper connection and understanding. This session brings together peer wisdom and neuroscience, focusing on the powerful link between your nervous system and the science of the trauma brain.

Through a compassionate, trauma-aware lens, you’ll have the chance to reflect on your own experiences and those of the people you care about. This is an opportunity for us to share tools and insights that can support your self-compassion and personal growth.

What We Will Explore (Key Areas)

This workshop is for us to look closely at how life’s challenges shape the way we feel, behave, and connect. We’ll work together on strategies that help us feel safe, connected, and ready to grow:

The Science of Trauma
How trauma impacts our brain and body—and what that means for us day to day.
The Trauma-Informed Lens
Why seeing the world through a trauma-aware perspective can make life feel safer and more supportive.
Building Safety
Practical ways we can create spaces—inside and around us—that feel physically and emotionally safe.
Practical Self-Compassion
How we can show kindness to ourselves and build meaningful connections with others.
Post-Traumatic Growth
Exploring how safe, supportive environments help us heal and thrive together.

What People Are Saying About Our PTG Workshop

"I found this workshop to be equally as informative and educational as it was compassionate and nurturing. Milly has a beautiful way of making everyone's unique and individual experiences of the same types of traumas feel normal and accepted. Milly also has a way of making you feel she is on your level, sharing personal stories and giving real world language to topics and experiences that, when delivered from some other facilitators, can appear too clinical or with a feeling of superiority. I left this workshop not only with some new science backed information and understanding of my own past experiences, but also with some practical tools to use for self regulation and ideas for further therapy and healing. I would absolutely recommend this workshop to anyone who is looking to deepen their journey of self, and gain some insight into how to take tangible steps toward healthier healing"

AND

"This was such a valuable workshop. For me it acted as a space for self reflection - recapping what I've learned, and reinforcing what I need to get back to doing.
It's easy to drift or plateau in recovery, and this session today helped wake me a little.
I'm so grateful. This was valuable to me as someone who is already familiar with the concepts discussed, but I also feel it would be equally if not more valuable for someone who is newer on their trauma recovery journey, or for those who are supporting someone.

I really like how it intertwined lived experience with science. It felt both informative, digestible and applicable at the same time. Thank you."
