Ep. 28 TMS & Trauma - An Adoptee’s story with Lucy Hill

Lucy Hill started experience chronic back pain in her forties and although she knew her body was trying to tell her something, what she discovered was far from expected.  Her quest to heal her back pain lead her to uncover something far deeper, the trauma she'd buried from being given up for adoption.  

Lucy takes us on a journey from childhood, through discovering she had TMS (Tension Myoneuro Symptom), all the way to finding her birth mother. It's an emotional ride, but an inspiring one too. 

Much like many of the topics we delve into on MBS, it comes down to education, support and open conversations.  Here's a list of the resources from this episode:
