Would you describe yourself as someone who could use some healing given what you've inherited from the generations who've gone before you? Do your parents or grandparents have some unresolved trauma that you're carrying?
This summer has been impactful for my family in that my cute dad recently passed away. My dad is really my biological uncle who adopted me when my mom passed away at a young age. Many of you have asked questions about my past, I'm sharing it here.
I'm so excited to dive into today's episode all about what it means to take the good from your previous generations, and manage the challenges that come with it, even when it's messy. Honoring your father and mother can be a beautiful thing, but it can also be really difficult if there's generational trauma and the previous generations haven't done the work of healing.
In this episode, I share some of my personal story with trauma to help you gain perspective of how generational healing works. You'll learn how to identify the post traumatic growth you've gained along the way, the difference between PTSD, and Complex PTSD, and leverage your childhood as a strength.
If you've ever struggled with wanting to build a better legacy for your family you are creating versus the one you inherited, this episode will give you perspective to navigate those situations with more intention.
