Traumality Community guide

A home for the trauma-informed community

Traumality Community exists to bring people, knowledge and lived experience together — making it easier to have useful conversations, share trusted resources, organise events, create focused spaces and teach what you know.

The goal is a more trauma-informed world, one connection at a time.

We are in beta, which means the community is growing from the ground up and features keep evolving. The members here now are the ones shaping it. Feedback is always welcome at info@traumality.com.

Start here

One Community, several ways in

You do not have to use everything. Read the public conversation first, then join free when you want to contribute, meet members or enter a Space.

Start a discussion, ask a question, share an update or respond to someone else. Public posts can be read by visitors, while posting, liking, replying and saving are for members.

Your own corner of the internet

Write and publish your own blog

Every member gets a public blog with its own handle — Traumality Journal for editorial pieces and Community Voices for member writing. Draft privately, publish when ready, and share your articles anywhere. Readers can like and discuss your work in threaded comments, and your whole blog lives on one shareable page.

Write like a blog maker

A studio for drafting, editing and publishing articles with a social preview before you share.

A public page per writer

Your articles gather under your own handle, so one link shows everything you have published.

Conversation included

Readers can comment, reply in threads and like contributions — discussion stays with the article.

Knowledge grows when it moves

Share practical experience, questions, articles and resources. Save what matters, return to it later and help other members discover useful work.

Connection stays consensual

Profiles help people find shared interests and experience. Send a connection request to introduce yourself; messaging opens only after both people agree, so every relationship starts with consent rather than cold contact.

Focused spaces

What can a Space be?

A Space is a smaller community organised around a profession, interest, place, project or shared purpose. Hosts choose who can see it, whether people join instantly, and whether members or only managers can post.

A professional peer network
A local or regional trauma-informed group
A learning community around one subject
A place for an organisation or project
An event series and its participants
A free or paid course community

Inside a Space

Home

Conversation and shared posts

Announcements

Important updates at the top

Events

In-person or online gatherings and RSVPs

Library

Resources and downloadable files

Members

Joining, roles and moderation

Courses

Optional structured learning

New Spaces begin as drafts. Add the essential details and prepare the space before publishing, so members do not discover an unfinished Space.

Bring people together

Use a Space to facilitate events

Create online or in-person events with dates, times, locations, joining links and descriptions. Members can respond, keep the event with its wider conversation, and download it to their calendar.

Share and sell expertise

Build and sell courses inside a Space

A Space does not need a course. When structured learning is the right format, hosts can build a free or paid course — with video, downloads and quizzes — without sending members elsewhere.

Video lessons

Embed lesson videos so they play inside the course.

Downloads

Attach PDFs and other files beneath the right lesson.

Quizzes

Use single choice, multiple selections or written answers.

From course to bank account

How to set up getting paid

Stripe handles customer payments and payouts. Complete the setup once, then your share of future course and membership sales is allocated automatically.

  1. 1

    Create the learning space

    Create your Space, then add a course when it is useful. Courses are optional — a Space can exist entirely for conversation, events or resources.

  2. 2

    Build the course

    Organise it into numbered modules and lessons. Add embedded video, downloadable files and multiple-choice, multiple-selection or written-answer quizzes.

  3. 3

    Choose the price

    Keep the course free or set a one-off price. You can also offer paid monthly access to the Space.

  4. 4

    Open Getting paid

    From the account menu in the Community, choose Getting paid. Select the country where you and your bank account are based.

  5. 5

    Complete Stripe setup

    Accept the terms, continue to Stripe, complete its identity checks and add the bank account that should receive your earnings.

  6. 6

    Return and refresh

    Come back to Traumality and select Refresh status. Once it says Ready to sell, finish your pricing and publish.

  7. 7

    Receive payments automatically

    When someone buys, 90% is allocated to you and Traumality retains a 10% platform fee. Stripe handles the payment and sends your earnings to your bank.
