Dr. Rola Hallam | Healing Trauma, Transforming Lives: A Conversation

What if healing trauma could be the key to breaking cycles of violence? This week we have a powerful conversation with Dr. Rola Hallam – a frontline humanitarian, trauma-informed life coach, and global changemaker. We explore the deep, lasting effects of trauma and the path to recovery. Drawing from her firsthand experiences in war-torn Syria, Dr. Hallam shares how trauma shapes individuals and communities, and why intentional healing is the foundation for resilience. Together, we dive into the concept of post-traumatic growth, uncovering the power of spirituality, purpose, and collective healing. Dr. Hallam challenges the conventional approach to trauma by shifting the focus from external solutions to personal transformation—emphasizing that healing ourselves is the first step to healing the world.   We Also Discuss:  ●     How healing begins with intention—mindfulness and purpose drive lasting change. ●     Why trauma isn’t isolated and how it shapes communities and echoes across generations. ●     The importance of true self-care and why emotional, physical, and spiritual healing must align. ●     Why self-compassion is radical—healing ourselves is the first step to healing the world.   [0:00:00] Introduction [0:02:50] War affects us all; the mindful intention to heal [0:07:07] Spirituality, purpose, and the importance of community [0:10:30] Trauma healing needs a holistic approach [0:12:35] The result of unresolved trauma [0:14:45] Dr. Rola Hallam’s personal healing journey  [0:19:20] Working with frontline workers in high-stress and high-risk areas [0:23:26] The chokehold of shame on us [0:26:06] Breaking cycles of trauma to create lasting societal evolution [0:32:10] Reconnecting with nature, humanity, and the divine [0:37:44] Practical strategy to process or integrate their traumatic experiences   Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastoffer Connect with Dr. Rola Hallam at https://www.drrolahallam.com/   Download your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcast   Order “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: www.radicalresponsibilitybook.com   Join our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity    Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/heartmindinstitute   Follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/heartmindinstitute    Visit www.heartmind.co to learn more    Produced by Evolved Podcasting - www.evolvedpodcasting.com
