When Food is How You Survived | Featuring Kristen Zappone, RDN
<p class="p1">Kristin Zappone is a registered dietitian nutritionist and co-creator of Trauma-Informed Mindful Eating (TIME), a 20-hour skills-based program developed through CFTE. She joins Jenn Turner for a conversation about what it actually looks like to rebuild a relationship with food when diet culture has been functioning as a form of chronic trauma for most of your life.</p> <p class="p1">Kristin starts the episode with a grounding practice — pressure through the feet, movement between heel and ball, no agenda. From there, she and Jenn move into the nine principles of TIME, including interoception, allowing food, building endurance and tolerance, and grief. The conversation is specific in ways that a lot of discussions about food and body image are not: what food scarcity actually looks like (including when there is technically food in the house but you are not allowed to eat it), what it means to work with a client whose goal is still to lose weight, and why Kristin doesn't view food-as-coping as a problem to be eliminated.</p> <p class="p2">They also talk about the systemic dimension of all of this — how diet culture embeds itself in family relationships and medical environments, how health messaging for people with less food access often misses the point entirely, and why so many approaches to mindful eating still have an objective hiding inside them.</p> <p class="p1">TIME's fall cohort begins September 2026. Available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.</p>

Healing Without Causing Harm | Featuring Lama Rod Owens
<p>Lama Rod Owens — Black Buddhist teacher, Harvard Divinity School graduate, and author of Love and Rage and The New Saints — joins Jenn Turner for a conversation about what it actually takes to be in a healing role without causing harm. That question turns out to go deeper than most professional training ever reaches.</p> <p>They start with a practice called the Four Naturals: an opening that moves through natural body, natural breath, natural mind, and natural self — an invitation to arrive without agenda, without performance, without trying to fix what's already present. From there, the conversation goes into Lama Rod's early years as a meditation teacher, when he was regularly activating people in practice and didn't yet have the framework to understand why. He stopped teaching breathwork entirely until he figured out how to offer it in a way that gave people genuine agency. He calls that period a blessing.</p> <p>They talk about what keeps teachers and therapists from causing harm over time — not rules, but the internal structures that make accountability possible. Staying a student. Staying in relationship with peers and elders. Keeping a life outside of the role. They talk about the Calgon dynamic: the way people come to spiritual teachers and therapists wanting to be carried away from their suffering rather than supported in being with it — and why that fantasy is a setup for harm on both sides. </p> <p>And they talk about truth-telling: what it costs Lama Rod to be as open as he is, why he does it anyway, and what he believes it makes possible for the people who are watching him do it. </p> <p>Available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.</p>

Embodied Wellbeing as the Foundation of Healing | Elaine Miller-Karas | On Trauma & Power S2 E6
<p>Elaine Miller-Karas, LCSW has spent decades doing trauma work in some of the most difficult places imaginable — post-earthquake China and Haiti, war-affected Turkey and Syria, Covenant House shelters in Atlanta, and now the neighborhoods in Los Angeles leveled by fire. What she's developed from all of it is a biologically grounded, deeply invitational approach to healing that starts with one foundational question: what does your body already know? In this conversation with Jenn Turner, Elaine shares the core frameworks of the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) and Community Resiliency Model (CRM), including the wellness skill of gestures — a practice she first observed organically across multiple cultures as people reached for what helped them survive. She and Jenn go deep on what it actually means to work without prescribing, on the difference between a client who isn't ready and a client who is resistant, and on what the research coming out of Rwanda on compassion and forgiveness is telling us about the power of embodied wellbeing. They also get into the word resilience itself — where it gets weaponized, why Elaine has kept it in the name of her models anyway, and what her definition of it requires that most clinical frameworks miss. Plus: why she refuses to call tending and befriending a maladaptive response, and why that reframe matters enormously for the people sitting across from us. Available on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.</p>
