E 207: Healing Generations: Reparenting, Perfectionism & Thriving Families with Reesa Morala, LMFT

In this powerful and heart-centered episode, we sit down with Reesa Morala, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, parenting ally, and founder of Embrace Renewal Therapy & Wellness Collective. Reesa shares her deeply personal journey from surviving a childhood marked by abuse and chaos to becoming a conscious, connected parent and therapist helping others heal.Reesa opens up about the transformative moment in college when she met a therapist who helped her begin the work of reparenting herself and healing the wounds of her past. That journey took on new meaning when she became a mother to a medically complex child who stopped eating at just 3 months old—a challenge that tested every bit of healing she had done.We explore the emotional weight of parentification—a common experience for adult children of dysfunctional homes—and how many parents unknowingly carry this into their own parenting. Reesa also discusses the myth of the “perfect child,” and how many parents, driven by unconscious wounds, can place impossible expectations on themselves and their kids.💡 Topics we cover:How childhood trauma shapes parentingThe burden of parentification and how to recognize itWhat “reparenting” really looks like in everyday lifeThe dangers of striving for perfection in childrenHow to prioritize your relationship while parentingWhy self-care and support aren’t luxuries—they're lifelinesReesa’s message is a lifeline to parents who feel overwhelmed, isolated, or like they're “getting it wrong.” She reminds us: you are not alone, and there is always space to heal, reconnect, and thrive—both as a parent and as a person.✨ Whether you’re deep in the parenting trenches or healing your own childhood wounds, this episode will meet you with compassion, insight, and hope.🎧 Connect with Reesa Morala:🔹 Instagram & TikTok: @embrace.renewal.therapy🔹 YouTube: The Real Family EatsHey there, I’m so glad you’re here and tuning in!
