Welcome to Season 3: Storytelling as Tool to Reshape Trauma Narratives

Hosts Bridgette Stumpf and Lindsey Silverberg welcome listeners to the third season of “TraumaTies” by introducing the sponsoring organization’s new name: Volare.

The third season will focus on the power of storytelling to reshape trauma narratives. To help the hosts tell that story, they have a powerful roster of guests. These will include, among others, Kathy Kleiner Rubin, who survived an attack by serial killer Ted Bundy in 1978; Broadway actor Wade McCollum, recently in “Water for Elephants,” who will discuss bringing trauma stories to life; and Kaitlin Roig-DeBellis, who saved her first-grade class at Sandy Hook Elementary School during the mass shooting in 2012.

As Bridgette explains, this season will invite listeners to learn about resiliency through storytelling and to “acknowledge and recognize where trauma shows up in our everyday lives.”

Brought to you by Volare, TraumaTies: Untangling Societal Harm & Healing After Crime is a podcast that creates space and conversations to dissect the structural and systemic knots that keep us from addressing trauma.

Rooted in a belief that survivors of crime deserve respect for their dignity in the aftermath of victimization, Volare seeks to empower survivors by informing them of all of the options available and working to transform existing response systems to be more inclusive of the diverse needs that survivors often have after crime.

Volare also provides free, holistic, and comprehensive advocacy, therapeutic, and legal services to survivors of all crime types. Visit our website to learn more about how to access our trauma-informed education training and how to partner with us to expand survivor-defined justice.
