What happens when three family physicians sit down and get honest about what's missing in the care we provide? On this episode host Raj Sundar is joined by Dr. Rachel Weiner and Dr. Sophia Malik to explore why so many patients are carrying unprocessed trauma in their bodies — and why most of us were never given the tools to address it. They talk about Somatic Experiencing® (SE™), Compassionate Inquiry®, the nervous system, and what it actually looks like to bring body-based awareness into a 15-minute primary care visit. They also get personal about our own journeys with embodiment, dissociation, therapy, and the uncomfortable question of why we became physicians in the first place. This conversation is for any clinician who has ever sat with a patient and felt like something deeper was going on, but didn't know what to do next.
