Adverse Childhood Experiences and creativity - A Notebook AI Podcast

Most of us have a wide variety of emotional experiences as a child and teen, and as as adults, of course.

These may include relatively minor and temporary hurts, but also abuse, even trauma.

And these experiences can endure, especially when not addressed or healed, deeply impacting our lives and access to our creativity.

This audio is an AI-generated "podcast" with the "speakers" doing a great job of covering main topics and quotes in my article How Adverse Childhood Experiences and trauma affect our lives and creativity.
