In this powerful episode of Trauma Rockstars, host Tracy sits down with Erin Snow, the founder of Seacoast Listening Lounge. Erin bravely shares her personal trauma history, the heavy weight of silence she carried for 30 years, and the incredible relief she found after finally speaking up and filing a police report.
​Erin’s story is a testament to the fact that healing has no expiration date. From her early childhood trauma to her 17-year career in the legal system as a victim advocate, she explains how she turned her pain into a passion for helping others find their voice.
