Send us Fan MailVictoria Volk went from being the ultimate "strong friend" and a functional binge drinker to realizing she was trapped by a low-level frequency of unresolved childhood grief.In this episode, you’ll see how losing her father at age eight, experiencing early trauma, and stepping into an adult emotional caretaker role at a young age shaped her life and how excavating her past, breaking generational patterns, and mastering sound healing helped her finally break free.You’ll learn how to stop confusing a busy life with a healed life, why being the shoulder everyone cries on often hides your own deep pain, and how unprocessed emotional wounds act like a silent background hum, sabotaging your health, habits, and relationships until you look them in the face.Watch this if:👉 You are always the "strong one" everyone leans on, but you secretly feel empty or unsupported.👉 You use alcohol, work, or busywork to numb a constant, low-level anxiety in the background.👉 You’ve noticed that your friends or family get uncomfortable or distance themselves when you start changing.👉 You want to understand how childhood losses (beyond just death) silently dictate your adult choices.You’ll walk away with:✅ A radical new definition of grief that explains why you might be mourning lost dreams or expectations.✅ The chilling reason why 75% of your adult emotional responses were already hardwired by the time you turned three.✅ Insight into how emotional trauma physically stores itself in the body, and how sound frequencies can clear it.✅ A raw, honest framework for becoming a generational chain-breaker so your children don't inherit your wounds.Connect with Alison:Instagram: @alisonanswers | @lagercounselingWebsite: LagerCounseling.comYouTube: Alison AnswersFacebook: Alison Lager Lcsw CasacPurchase Alison’s book: “The Wake Up Call”Alison Answers Facebook Group: Join HEREWomen of Excellence FB group: Join HERE⚠️ Crisis Resources:Lager Counseling ServicesCall: 516-221-2123Text: (914) 363-0381Wantagh: 3408 Park Ave. Wantagh, NY 11793988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (24/7, free, confidential)Call or text 988 | Visit 988lifeline.org
