The Communications Bridge
Honorable Professionals Strengthen Survivors' Neurology
Before severe traumatic brain injury, I knew a lot about interpersonal communications and infrastructural community resourcing skillsets. I practiced continuously.
I studied varying forms of somatic psychology, physical mind-body rehabilitations, agility in the midst of intentional or situational hypnosis, dream-state neuroplasticity and neurological repair through creative expression modalities, vocational recovery through public media and publishing toolsets, and networked (living) interstitial resourcing.
I practiced professionally, mostly privately, as a dominatrix and power exchange training partner on and off for about the span of a decade. In that work, I specialized in areas of hypnosis and relational influence.
But once I encountered local sex trafficking pathways in my personal and professional communities, my approach to this work had to change considerably.
When I experienced severe neurological injuries and was trafficked, my interpersonal communications neurology was wiped out. My natural modes of being socially, being interconnected through individual relationships, were replaced with patterns that benefited others.
Interestingly, this violence didn't so much wipe out my broader infrastructural community resourcing neurology. Badly damaged, but more swiftly accessible than my brain functions for interacting one-on-one with other people.
As a result, and over these last 7 years of hard-won physical recovery while rebuilding my interpersonal communications skillsets, I have relied heavily on what remained of my infrastructural community resourcing neurology.
Survivors of violence currently cannot reenter communities that don't know how to communicate with them.
For this reason, we prioritize efforts that restore communications functions and resilience for survivors who have been abandoned by or are unknown to everyone else.
What we must teach others on a daily basis in order to do this work resonates powerfully with the needs of communities affected by ambient and directed hypnosis techniques.
Because of the techniques and methods employed not only by human trafficking organizations but also by colonial imperialist interests, it is especially important that we all be well educated in power dynamics and consciousness influencing.
In all this time, we've almost never encountered professionals capable of collaborating at our level.
We have, however, discovered a profound and amazing few.
If you are a professional whose work has resonated in this way, we are converging on a miracle together. The work you do is rare.
We are holding our ground at the midst of active human trafficking networks. And we're glad you are there, even if we haven't yet had the opportunity to get to know you well.
As we continue to build out this work, we would like to more deeply inform our processes with yours. You are invited into our conversations, into our public and private conversational spaces, and into our broadcasts. We are often thinking of you. We are excited about what may unfold, going forward.
Women, men, children, elders, friends, family, loved ones, strangers, others. All ages and genders are affected by these intersections, all with diverse powerful lived experience, all with crucial professional expertise to strengthen the world's professionals who we know have been misled and mistreated.
These communications are the bridge that opens the world to them again, and to every one.
Discerning, honorable professionals strengthen survivors' communities and help others do the same.
Thank you for spending your time and energy here with us.
