Jeff Brazier: I Wasn't Healing. I Was Just Surviving.
About this episode
Jeff Brazier discusses his journey of healing and the challenges of processing personal pain.
Jeff Brazier has spent much of his life holding everything together for everyone else. But behind the positivity was a man who realised he'd never really processed his own pain. In this honest conversation, recorded live at the Union Chapel in London, Jeff reflects on childhood trauma, grief, fatherhood, therapy, people pleasing and the lifelong process of healing. Together they explore why so many of us stay in survival mode, how old defence mechanisms follow us into adulthood, and what happens when you finally stop pretending you're okay.
