This is episode 1 of Womb Stories, and I wanted to welcome Anita Kopacz as my very first guest because she has helped to unlock my own womb story.
Anita and I first connected on a podcast episode towards the end of 2015, where I was interviewing people about pleasure, and she talked about some of her trauma work. She helped me to understand another dimension of how to understand the victim and survivor story.

Quotes
“The beautiful thing about doing trauma work is that we already survived.”
“It’s almost like trauma is the door we have to go through to get home. And so many of us run from that door, so we are running away from home all the time.”
