Popular trauma narratives claim that chronic stress reshapes the brain and body in ways that inevitably impair focus, flexibility, and emotional control while damaging physical health. This episode examines the evidence behind those claims, separating well-supported findings from oversimplified interpretations. We explore how neuroimaging, physiology, and animal research contribute to our understanding—and where the science is more uncertain than commonly portrayed.
