Description

Trauma Uncensored is a weekly trauma and grief podcast about what life actually looks like after everything changes. Hosted by Brooke Scherer, the show begins with the loss of her 9-year-old son Logan, who was killed by a distracted driver in 2016. What followed wasn't closure. It was courtrooms, headlines, and years of trying to survive something no one prepares you for. This is the unfiltered side of trauma recovery: Real survivor stories, honest conversations about grief and healing, and the tools that actually help.
