Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) with Elaine Wilkins - Breaking the Cycle to StepForward Podcast

In this podcast Bev and Chris have a 60min conversation with Elaine Wilkins.
Elaine is a published author and multi-Award winning founder of ‘The Chrysalis Effect’ a Trauma Informed Coaching organisation that delivers the first ever Trauma-Informed Recovery Pathway’ for those suffering with multiple symptoms including ME, CFS, fibromyalgia and Long Covid post viral fatigue.
Her own 6 year illness left her bedbound with no treatment plan. Her subsequent recovery from chronic fatigue syndrome was the catalyst to her 15 year journey to transform the attitude, approach and accessibility of recovery from fatigue related illnesses.
Her work has supported over 5000 people to recover their health, delivered ground-breaking trauma informed accredited courses for therapists and clinicians, building an incredible team of trauma informed recovery specialists. Her dream of a holistic trauma informed recovery pathway being immediately accessible at point of GP referral became reality in 2022.
Her background in Education and Training within public and private sector and extensive experience in business has been invaluable in driving forward the agenda of transforming the acute disease model of healthcare to a fully integrated Bio- psycho- social model. This trauma Informed approach has been tested and proven in NHS Pilots and evaluated by Oxford University.
Elaine’s passion and skill is supporting clients to see that illness can be a hidden gift sent to teach the importance of addressing, releasing, and resolving trauma and honouring our wellbeing above all else to build health happy energised lives.
