    Episode 8: Breaking the Cycle

    Generational trauma doesn’t start with us, but it can end with us.

This is an honest conversation about accountability, regret, healing as a parent, and choosing to stop the cycle of abuse and emotional damage. Breaking the cycle isn’t about being perfect. It’s about becoming aware, taking responsibility, and deciding that the pain stops here.
