Highly Trained explores the lessons we absorb before we know we’re learning them. Through childhood, attachment, trauma, family systems, identity, leadership, injustice, culture, and the stories we inherit, this podcast looks past symptoms and surface explanations to ask what shaped the person underneath. Hosted by Hunter Ethan Brooks, trauma therapist, clinical educator, and founder of Restore Your Life, this show examines how people become trained by survival, relationships, systems, and repetition — and what it takes to become something more than what we were taught to be. Not broken. Not random. Highly trained.Hunter Ethan Brooks, LCSW, LICSW, CASAC-M CCTP-II Hygiene & Healthy Living Psychology Psychology & Mental Health
