Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg
Our Purpose
Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg exists to change the way trauma is understood, discussed, and healed. It is the primary public-facing voice of the foundation and the main audience entry point into the JBF ecosystem. The show bridges lived experience, survivor testimony, education, systems critique, recovery tools, and cultural conversation into one platform.
Why It Matters?
Trauma narratives are often fragmented, sensationalized, or oversimplified. Survivors are either ignored or reduced to their worst moments. Trauma Interrupted reframes trauma as a human experience, not an identity, and recovery as a collective responsibility, not an individual burden.
The podcast is not just storytelling, it is movement-building media.

The Wound, the Work, and the Way Forward. Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg is here. In our first episode, Jan Broberg, Teresa Agustin, and her son Austen Tanner share the story behind the show and why it exists.
Content advisory: child sexual abuse, grooming, and substance use recovery.
In the first episode of Trauma Interrupted, host Jan Broberg sits down with Teresa Agustin, JBF Board Chair and creator of Spot 6, and her son Austen Tanner, JBF Co-Founder and co-creator of the T.I.M.E. Program, to introduce the show, the foundation's three pillars of Awareness, Community, and Justice, and the programs they have spent the past two years building.
Together, they trace why the rebrand from, The Jan Broberg Show, to Trauma Interrupted is more than a name change. They talk about how Survivor Circle evolved from an early community called Thrivivors, why the T.I.M.E. Program (Trauma Interrupted, Mitigated, and Expressed) was built as peer-led and community-sustained, and how SPOT6 teaches the six stages of child grooming so adults can recognize patterns before abuse happens.
Teresa shares her grooming story and the decade of silence that followed. Austen speaks about addiction, recovery, and why peer-to-peer community matters for healing. Jan ties it back to the foundation's broader mission of breaking the cycles of abuse that depend on secrecy.
