Rebuilding Intimacy After Trauma (ft. Susan Bratton)

What does it take to feel safe enough to be close again?

In this episode, Shannon and Lauren sit down with intimacy expert and trauma survivor Susan Bratton to unpack what rebuilding intimacy looks like after trauma. They talk about how communication builds safety, and why so many survivors struggle to feel touch without fear.

Susan shares her story of healing after childhood abuse and how she learned to turn numbness into sensation and shame into sovereignty.

It’s a conversation about presence, power, and the possibility of pleasure after pain, and a reminder that rebuilding intimacy isn’t about sex at all. It’s about coming home to yourself. Cheers!
