Being Open about Trauma, Crisis, and Stress | Cassandra LeClair | TEDxTexasStateUniversity

In April 2018, Dr. Cassandra LeClair survived a car crash that not only broad-sided her daily existence, it sent her careening back to childhood trauma that she had not previously disclosed or dealt with. Dr. LeClair spent her days teaching others to communicate effectively and share their stories all while keeping a devastating secret that prevented her from feeling truly whole and living an authentic existence. Join Cassandra as she relates her emotional story of healing and encourages others to acknowledge and share their own stories, in their own way. Through openness and emotional expression individuals can learn from one another, create safe spaces, and support others as they share their stories. Dr. Cassandra LeClair is an author, professor, communication consultant, and motivational speaker. Cassandra’s mission is to educate individuals on how to have effective and healthy communication to enhance their relationships. She works to help others gain understanding of their communication practices to improve their connections with friends and family members, in the workplace, and beyond. She recently published her first book Being Whole: Healing from Trauma and Reclaiming My Voice. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
