In this deeply moving podcast, Eva May speaks with Lee, a humanitarian worker who has been providing trauma support in Ukrainian refugee centers throughout the war. Lee shares the jarring experience of transitioning between life in an abandoned Tesco-turned-refugee camp, where 2,000 women and children arrive daily with their possessions in carrier bags, and returning to normal UK life where everyday concerns seem trivial in comparison. His raw honesty about struggling to reconnect with mundane conversations back home reveals the psychological toll of witnessing such profound human suffering and displacement. Lee’s organization specializes in training yoga teachers and providing trauma-informed yoga therapy to help refugees cope with PTSD and war trauma. Having previously worked with marginalized groups, military veterans, and Grenfell Tower survivors through NHS contracts, his team pivoted to support Ukrainian refugees when the war began. The conversation highlights both the incredible resilience of ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances and the critical need for mental health support, while offering listeners a firsthand account of the ongoing humanitarian crisis that continues to unfold beyond the headlines.
