In this powerful clip from the podcast, Dr. LaShaon Machado Brinson shares a heartbreaking and transformative moment from her healing journey. After her daughter's suicide attempt, she was forced to look in the mirror and realize a devastating truth: "She learned that from you."
LaShaon breaks down how she was unconsciously modeling self-destruction by constantly silencing her own needs and desires. In a system that praised "dying to self," she was committing a slow, subtle suicide—and her children were watching.
This isn't about a literal act, but about the slow erasure of self that so many of us, especially in high-demand communities, normalize.
If you've ever felt trapped in a role that is consuming you, this clip is a must-listen. It’s a raw look at how breaking cycles begins with honoring our own voices.
