They do all work together.
I think that really that first question, there's a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of trauma that we have in this world because of the word trauma.
Right.
And this is what I spoke about in my TEDx book.
The word trauma comes from the Greek word trauma, which means a wound and really time heals wounds.
