Whitney Cummings, is Trauma a Privilege in Disguise? | Soul Boom | Ep 13

Whitney Cummings (2 Broke Girls, The Female Brain) joins Rainn Wilson on Soul Boom for an insightful and raw conversation about self-respect, vulnerability, and the role of trauma in personal growth. Whitney shares her journey of learning to like herself, the power of naming fears, and the surprising ways animals have contributed to her healing process. They delve into the complexities of people-pleasing, the impact of childhood experiences, and how embracing vulnerability can lead to deeper connections. Join us for an inspiring discussion that challenges conventional wisdom and offers a fresh perspective on mental health and self-worth.
