How childhood violence rewires human biology
In this powerful debut episode of the Stop Hurting People Podcast, Maya and Sam unpack the science behind how childhood exposure to violence literally changes the developing brain and body. They explore groundbreaking research on toxic stress, epigenetic markers, and the long-term health consequences of early adversity — from altered immune function to increased risk of chronic disease. Through compassionate dialogue and evidence-based insights, they examine why understanding these biological impacts is critical for breaking cycles of harm and how communities can support healing at the deepest level.
