S1E21: The Curse of Generational Trauma

Episode Trigger warning: Depression, mental illness, suicide

In this episode, I talk about the curse of generational trauma and how I was conditioned to suppress my emotion because of my parents' unprocessed trauma. It is important to remember if we’re a child of immigrants, and our parents had a tumultuous upbringing, they were parenting from a place of unprocessed pain. They were parenting from trauma and without the mental health resources to help them adjust back to normalcy. Getting to a place of compassion, acceptance, and understanding why our parents are the way they are will free us from the burdens of our past selves.
