I’m back! Living the #nevergiveup philosophy

I’m back! Living the #nevergiveup philosophy

Hello all of you beautiful trauma-warriors and trauma-advocates!

As you are aware, as fans of the show, the last interview I posted was in December 2021. I had to leave our house quickly due to a health issue (of which I am not yet at liberty to discuss as our legal team has advised against it). However, I have now moved my recording equipment to a friend’s home and am happy to be back up and functioning as host, healer, writer, and trauma-warrior. I promise to share the details as soon as I am able to do so. As a trauma survivor, I am not a fan of keeping quiet about the truth. I have learned that sharing our truths is healing and liberating. And I so very much look forward to doing so with this story. As I believe it will help others heal and find resolution, as well.

I will be editing previously recorded episodes and sharing those at the normally slotted Fridays at 7:00 PM EST.

Thank you for your patience, prayers, and loving support as I travel this part of my healing journey!

In peace & gratitude,

Teri

Bio:

“Director, Amy Erickson, grew up near Detroit in the 60s in a family of singers. This, along with the music of Motown and Burt Bacharach blaring on her kitchen radio helped her learn to sing by ear. She also loved to dance and stared working at age 13 to take jazz lessons.  These, combined with her introduction to musical theatre as a child, nurtured Amy’s love of the performing arts. But in her 20s, the singing and dancing stopped due to the impact of early-childhood trauma. The physical and emotional pain kept her shut down. Then, in her 40s, she found the courage to perform in a musical theatre production and rediscovered the vitality she felt in her youth. This proved to be the first step of healing from PTS. Amy was inspired to create Visceral after working with the Community Resilience Initiative in Walla Walla in 2010. She also is trained as a traumatic-stress responder by First Aid Arts, Seattle, WA.

In 2017, Amy received a WA state Artist Trust Grant for Artists’ Projects for Visceral, and an Artist Residency at the Jack Straw Cultural Center, Seattle. 

And yes, she still sings and dances! Since 2010 she’s performed in six musical productions, continues to sing with a community choir, and takes musical theatre dance classes. For her, movement, voice, and social engagement through the performing arts continue to be life-giving forces.”
