In this week's Fck Saving Face Podcast episodes, we'll be talking about Trauma. And to jumpstart the topic, I share vulnerability reflecting upon the question, "How do you handle the heartbreak when your family of origin doesn’t love or accept you? Is this considered trauma?'"
In today’s episode, you’ll hear a vulnerable share about my relationship with my siblings and how your heart can break for reasons both within and beyond your control. Listen to an intimate story that involves immigrant parent dynamics, being a parentified child, and having a daughter of my own now… realizing I won’t be able to give her the tight knit family I wished for and still creating a modern family dynamic that can involve extended family made of friendships and community.
Being human can be really challenging sometimes. Doing the right thing and continuing to have an open heart with healthy boundaries can also be very difficult, especially if you're also learning how to be vulnerable and continuing to show up in the midst of things that are not exactly as you'd hoped.
