Conversations with a Wounded Healer
with Sarah Buino, LCSW, CADC
Conversations with a Wounded Healer isn’t just for therapists. It’s for anyone who’s curious about what it really takes to heal ourselves and the systems we live and work inside.
Are you drawn to the deeper questions of why we think, feel, and act the way we do? Especially under the pressure of today’s rapidly changing world?
Are you curious about how our personal histories intersect with organizational cultures, professional roles, and larger social systems?
Do you wonder how power, money, leadership, and ethics quietly shape our well-being; often without our consent or awareness?
Are you interested in how trauma, resilience, and nervous system patterns show up not just in individuals, but in workplaces, communities, and institutions?
Are you finding your way through your own healing while also trying to show up responsibly for others?
Do you care deeply about mental health, helping professions, or social change—and feel uneasy about the systems we’ve inherited to do that work?
If any of this sounds like you, Conversations with a Wounded Healer is your place to land.
Since the show’s inception in 2008, host Sarah Buino has invited listeners into honest, unscripted conversations with people from all walks of life who share a commitment to personal and collective healing.
What started as a show about the personal journeys of helping professionals has evolved. Now we’re digging deeper into how we can transform mental health care and rethink the cultural forces that shape our well-being, so these systems can actually help everyone thrive.
Each episode is a chance to explore where vulnerability meets professionalism, where personal stories meet big-picture ideas, and where caring for ourselves is inseparable from caring for our communities.
Whether you’re here for inspiration, learning, or a sense of connection, Conversations with a Wounded Healer invites you to be part of this ongoing journey of healing and transformation.
