Having worked in mental health and child welfare, this book gave me great insight into how my work impacts my personal life, professional life, and overall well-being. I’m encouraged by the examples in this book and the process of recognizing how vicarious trauma has impacted my thoughts and harness tips to find balance to be my best self while helping others. I highly recommend this book for anyone working in a helping field.

I went into this one expecting it to be something more general than what it was; despite the useful information about how trauma ripples out it really is more applicable to those who engage with trauma vocationally rather than through activism.

This is a must read for anyone in a giving/caring profession. 
The first half talks through the possible responses to trauma exposure and the second half provides a ton of practical advice to create a practice of self care to cope with the difficult things we are exposed to in our jobs. 

“May we remember that trauma stewardship requires us to honor others and our planet in a way that is possible only if we have made a commitment to our own path of wellness.”

I’m glad I purchased this book, as I’ll likely be referencing it again and again.
