TraumaWise Ministry Conversations
A gentle, trauma-wise week of recorded sessions + one live community conversation—designed for ministry leaders and care-bearers who want tools, clarity, and sustainable support (not performance).
FREE Access: Mon May 18 → Fri May 22, 2026
Live Panel + Q&A: Tue May 19 • 2–3pm PDT / 5–6pm EDT
Go at your pace: Watch in any order. Pause when you need to. Come as you are.
Start with one session. One next step at a time.
This is Not a Summit. It's a Conversation Container.
We planned a larger event...then real life happened.
Rather than forcing a container that no longer fits, we’re choosing depth over volume.
This is a smaller gathering by design:
- shame-free, grounded, practical (“help, not hype”)
- consent-and-choice centered (no forced disclosure)
- built for nervous systems that are already carrying a lot
Who It's For

How It Works
We're keeping it simple and streamlined!
Our Speakers
Aminah Vargas Harris, MSSA, LSW
The Nervous System of the Church: Strengthening what’s working. Aligning what’s not.
Every church has a “nervous system”—leadership tone, team dynamics, and culture cues shape what people actually experience when they walk in hurting.
You’ll receive practical reflection prompts to explore with your team—small shifts that create big changes in felt experience.
Cerise Woodard, RN, SANE-A
When Faith Fogs Reality:
How Religious Ideals Can Mask Abuse & Manipulation
Learn how spiritualized messaging can create confusion, delay recognition of harm, and distort safety—and how to respond with trauma-wise clarity.
You’ll practice simple, practical steps: Pause and notice (confusion/pressure/difficulty naming), prioritize safety first (“Is this person safe?”) and create space for honest conversations
Renae M. Dupuis, M.Div
From Caregiver to Culture-Setter:
Moving ministry from crisis response to sustainable shared care
Ministry often becomes dependent on a few exhausted people.
This session offers a TraumaWise roadmap for shifting from heroic caregiving to culture-setting leadership—where felt-safety, connection, and co-regulation are embedded in how your community functions, not just how it responds.
Our pillars
The TraumaWise Foundation
TraumaWise helps caregivers and community leaders cultivate capacity (nervous-system + relational)—not just competency—through:
Felt-Safety
Safety that is experienced: dignity, predictability, and choice
Connection
Attunement, belonging, repair, and shared language
Co-Regulation
Practiced steadiness, micro-tools, and boundaries that regulate
