About this listen

Welcome back, Empaths. Today’s episode is for those carrying the weight of an apology that may never come—especially from abusive or emotionally unavailable parents.

It’s a deep wound, isn’t it? Waiting, hoping they’ll change. That they’ll finally see your pain. But the truth? Some people never change. Not because you weren’t worthy of love—but because they were too damaged to give it.

Generational trauma runs deep. Many parents simply repeated what they knew, unaware they were passing down pain. But here’s the thing: you can break the cycle.

Through inner child work—acknowledging the parts of you that were ignored, shamed, or silenced—you begin to reparent yourself. You give you what they couldn’t.

And no, closure doesn't always come in the form of an apology. Sometimes, it's choosing peace over bitterness. Forgiveness doesn’t excuse their behavior—it frees you.

In this episode, we’ll explore how to heal without the apology, how to reconnect with your inner child, and how to finally break the cycle—for you and the generations that follow.
