About this listen

Families pass down more than traditions; they pass down silence. In this episode, we explore the unspoken stories, hidden wounds, and avoided conversations that shape us far more than we realize. From grief that was never processed to trauma that was never named to identities that were never acknowledged, generational silence becomes a quiet inheritance many of us are still carrying. Together, we unpack why families avoid these conversations, how silence becomes a survival strategy, and the emotional cost of keeping everything “in the family.” Most importantly, we discuss what it looks like to break these patterns with compassion, boundaries, and courage, rather than blaming the past, but rather to heal the future. If you’ve ever felt like you’re the first in your family to speak up, question things, or choose healing over hiding, this episode is for you. You’re not breaking the family; you’re breaking the cycle.
