Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg
Our Purpose
Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg exists to change the way trauma is understood, discussed, and healed. It is the primary public-facing voice of the foundation and the main audience entry point into the JBF ecosystem. The show bridges lived experience, survivor testimony, education, systems critique, recovery tools, and cultural conversation into one platform.
Why It Matters?
Trauma narratives are often fragmented, sensationalized, or oversimplified. Survivors are either ignored or reduced to their worst moments. Trauma Interrupted reframes trauma as a human experience, not an identity, and recovery as a collective responsibility, not an individual burden.
The podcast is not just storytelling, it is movement-building media.

Today, Jan is again joined by engineer and author Ted L. Turner and Charlotte Gwalt for part two of Charlotte's journey from desperation to a stable and happy life. Charlotte reveals how a life shaped by trauma led her to her future husband as a teenager and the long, difficult path to building a healthy life. She and Jan discuss the struggles of a young marriage, the profound impact of finally having her story believed by Ted, and the hard work of learning to mother her children when she had no model for it. Charlotte opens up about her journey to spiritual peace, forgiveness, and discovering her innate worth. This episode is ultimately a testament to hope, detailing how Charlotte broke the cycle of abuse to create a loving family and a lasting legacy of healing.
