Episode 2 – What is Trauma with Matt Nettleton

By Bronte Spicer | February 26, 2021

This episode features an interview with Matt Nettleton, where we talk about his personal story with PTSD, addiction, coping strategies and survival responses.

Matt has had a long personal history of addiction and trauma, his lived experience takes him far beyond any education he has had. He now abides primarily in the present moment, and holds the space for others during session in order to bring freedom from the minds narratives.

He is more than happy to work with people who have had a significant shift of identity into presence/awareness, and are wishing to deepen that experience, or those that simply wish to be free from trauma.

Bronte passionately teaches why and how to feel downright terrifying feelings. It set her free, after all. For 22 years, she thought she would live with depression forever. But it turned out, all she was missing was some vital somatic tools to feel safe in her body.

Bronte empowers individuals and teams of professionals to skillfully shift from being stuck in their head to safe in their body, comfortable in their skin and resourced from within to handle anything that life throws them.

A natural inspiration who is willing to share vulnerable stories, Bronte caters for the needs of both individuals and groups, as they learn to gently sit, feel and heal.

Bronte is a powerful healer, offering single KI and healing sessions, a deep guided 1:1 spiritual journey in the Diamond Mentorship and monthly Shamanic Immersions on djadjawurrung country. She is the author of It’s Okay to Cry: The Gentle Way to Dissolving Depression and award-winning writer for Elephant Journal. She is the host of her own podcast, ‘It’s Okay to Cry’, featuring the untold stories of individual somatic successes from people around the world.

Bronte has facilitated professional development wellbeing workshops and programs to companies, schools and organisations including Westpac, Spiritual Care Australia, Weeroona College and Spring Gully PS to improve wellbeing through feeling.

She holds a Bachelor of Education/Bachelor of Sport and Outdoor Recreation, Advanced Certificate in Guiding and Teaching Meditation and is certified as Reiki Level II Practitioner and Kiloby Inquiries Facilitator.

Bronte believes we need people to know how to feel, not feel better, but to feel the full spectrum of emotions we experience through life. Learning to feel brings connection, authentic expression, joy and purpose to lead fulfilling lives and requires skillful, compassionate somatic inquiry.
