In today's #WiseGirl video podcast, I sit down with Dr. Vincent Felitti, who researched and came up with the well-known, evidence-based Adverse Childhood Experiences Study - a series of questions leading to an "ACE" score of 1-10, exploring traumatic childhood events that can either contribute to emotional, physical, or mental unwellness or wellbeing over a person's lifetime. We talk about the implications of the study, medically, psychologically, and spiritually, and how clinicians, physicians, and the media could help. Our conversation intersects with explorations into early caregivers and attachment theory, mindfulness, physical health and addictive/compulsive behaviors.
