Welcome to ”Healing Medical Trauma: Real Stories of Healing and Hope From Survivors and Families,” the podcast where we explore the incredible journey of resilience and recovery after facing life-altering medical challenges. Hosted by Amanda and Bertrand Tento, coming to you with a mission to inspire and uplift you on your journey, through stories of triumph over adversity. Our podcast was born out of a deeply personal experience. In January of 2023, Amanda woke up on life support after giving birth to our son. This life-changing event not only transformed our lives but also sparked a burning desire to create a space where survivors and their families could find hope and healing. Each episode of ”Healing Medical Trauma” delves into the profound and often challenging experiences faced by individuals, and their family members, who have confronted a sudden and life-altering medical condition. Through raw and honest conversations, we explore the emotional rollercoaster, the physical struggles, and the mental resilience required to triumph over these trying times of traumatic medical recovery. But more importantly, we shine a light on the path to healing and recovery. Our guests, survivors themselves, along with their families, share their real, unfiltered stories of how they emerged stronger, found hope, and how they are dealing with their new situations. These stories are beacons of inspiration for anyone facing medical trauma, offering insights, strategies, and, most importantly, a sense of solidarity. In ”Healing Medical Trauma,” we don’t just focus on the medical aspect of the journey; we also delve into the emotional and psychological challenges that come with it. Moreover, we explore the spiritual aspect of these experiences and how families can use the power of prayer and faith to support and heal their loved ones. Join us every week as we invite survivors and their loved ones to share their stories, their triumphs, and their secrets to healing. Whether you’re a survivor yourself, a family member, a healthcare professional, or simply seeking stories of resilience and hope, this podcast is for you. Subscribe to ”Healing Medical Trauma” and be a part of our community of survivors, caregivers, and advocates. Together, we’ll discover that even in the darkest moments, there is light, there is hope, and there is healing. Our heart is with you on your journey to recovery.

Welcome to Healing Medical Trauma, the podcast that delves into the incredible journey of resilience and recovery after facing life-altering medical challenges. In this episode, titled "What to Expect from the Healing Medical Trauma Podcast-Episode 1," your hosts, Amanda, and Bertrand Tento, introduce their personal story and the inspiration behind this podcast.
Amanda shares her harrowing experience of navigating through complications during her pregnancy, including an amniotic embolism, pneumonia, and septic shock. With a slim chance of survival, she reflects on the miraculous actions of her husband, Bertrand, who became not only her cheerleader but also a spiritual leader for the entire medical team.
Together, Amanda and Bertrand believe in the power of sharing their story as a means of healing and providing hope to others facing similar challenges. As they recount their journey of recovery, from being on ECMO to learning how to walk, talk, and function again, they reflect on the lack of relatable and emotional resources they encountered during their own healing process.
With this podcast, they aim to fill that void by providing real stories of healing and hope from survivors and families. They invite listeners to join them in exploring diverse medical experiences, shedding light on the emotional and spiritual aspects, and offering valuable insights into the healing journey.
Throughout this series, they also welcome guest speakers who share their own stories, providing a platform for inspiration and connection for those who may feel isolated in their own medical trauma.
Tune in to this episode to embark on a transformative and uplifting journey of resilience, faith, and recovery. Together, Amanda and Bertrand lay the foundation for the Healing Medical Trauma podcast, ensuring that no one traverses medical trauma alone.
