Everyone Has a Story: A Story of Childhood Trauma | Holly Wilcox

In this episode of Everyone Has a Story, we talk with Holly Wilcox about her experience with childhood trauma and the impact those experiences can have long after the moment has passed. Holly shares her story openly and honestly, giving educators an opportunity to think differently about the students sitting in our classrooms and the stories they may be carrying with them.

As school counselors and educators, we know that behavior is often communication, and every student has a story that matters. Holly’s story is a reminder to look beyond what we see on the surface and approach students with compassion, curiosity, and a willingness to listen.

If you’re heading into a new school year, this is a conversation worth revisiting.

Everyone has a story and sometimes we just need someone willing to listen.
