This Thursday, join us for a special episode of "Shedding Light" as Kyle Robinson steps in as guest host. Kyle, a passionate advocate for justice reform and a survivor of the prison system, will guide listeners through a deeply important conversation about the challenges of reentry and coping with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C/PTSD) after incarceration.

In this episode, Kyle will explore the unique psychological and emotional obstacles that returning citizens face when trying to reintegrate into society. Drawing from his own experiences and the stories of others, Kyle will discuss how C/PTSD manifests in individuals who have endured prolonged trauma within the prison system, and how this condition can complicate the already difficult process of reentry.

Listeners can expect an honest and informative discussion on:

  • C/PTSD Explained: Understanding the difference between PTSD and C/PTSD, particularly in the context of those who have experienced long-term trauma in prison.
  • Coping Strategies: Practical tips and methods for managing the symptoms of C/PTSD during reentry, including self-care practices, seeking support, and therapeutic options.
  • Overcoming Barriers: How the stigma surrounding mental health issues, especially within the criminal justice system, creates additional challenges for those trying to rebuild their lives.
  • Personal Reflections: Kyle will share his own journey with C/PTSD, offering valuable insights and hope to those who may be facing similar struggles.
