Growing up as millennials, we were often told not to be too loud, not to ask for help, and to push our feelings down. Attachment therapist and author Eli Harwood joins us to unpack how our upbringings shaped us and how we can break generational cycles as parents. Eli opens with a powerful reframe: our parents truly did the best they could with what they knew. From there, we dive deep into what childhood trauma actually looks like (and why so many of us don't recognize it as trauma), how to build resilience in our kids, and why the way we parent almost always traces back to how we were parented. Whether you struggle with patience, saying no, or knowing when to discipline versus when to have a conversation, Eli offers practical, connection-focused tools to help us show up differently for our kids.Key Topics Covered:What secure attachment looks like and why Eli centers her work on connection and relationship rather than control and behavior.How to identify the childhood experiences you may be carrying into adulthood without realizing they are traumas.Finding the middle ground between raising independent kids and raising kids who feel safe asking for help.The number one predictor of long-term resilience in children and how to actively foster it.Why millennial parents may struggle with patience, and why the birthing parent often has less of it than their non-birthing partner.Punishment versus conversation: how to rethink your approach when your child does something wrong.Why saying no feels so hard for millennial parents and what to do if you want to change that pattern.CONNECT WITH ELI:Instagram & Threads (@attachmentnerd): https://www.instagram.com/attachmentnerd/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/attachmentnerdTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@attachmentnerdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@attachmentnerdGet Your Copy of Eli's Book: https://amzlink.to/az09tHmrRU6NT LINKS AND RESOURCES: BETTERHELP: 10% off first month at: http://betterhelp.com/herselfLMNT: Free Sample Pack with purchase: drinkLMNT.com/HERSELF Let's connect!HERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.
What does it really take to break the cycle of crime? In Part 2 of this conversation, Gary sits down with Lincoln Tarrow-Lynch, a man caught up in crime since he was a kid, who’d spent years dealing drugs, battling ice addiction, and surviving on the fringes of society, to uncover what finally turned his life around. Lincoln opens up about his first adult prison sentence, losing his mother while behind bars, and walking out of jail with nothing but a plastic bag and no support network. He shares how Rainbow Lodge, a post-release residential program in Sydney, gave him the soft landing he needed, and why without it, he's certain he'd have gone straight back into jail.

From Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz-Beckham to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, we've watched family rifts play out publicly. But behind the headlines is a dilemma many people face in their own lives: what happens when the person you love doesn't fit into the family you come from? This week, Kate Langbroek sits down with world-renowned relationship therapist Esther Perel to discuss one of the most emotionally complicated tensions of adulthood — choosing your partner while trying to maintain your relationship with your family. Why do some parents struggle to accept their child's partner? Why can falling in love feel like betrayal? And when family conflict erupts, how do you protect your relationship without losing the people who raised you? Together, Kate and Esther unpack family estrangement, difficult in-laws, loyalty, intimacy, and the relationship patterns we inherit from our parents — and whether it's possible to build a marriage that looks different from the one we grew up with.

What happens when the system meant to protect a child chooses to punish them instead? Lincoln Tarrow-Lynch's earliest memory is watching his father being arrested. By five, his mother was in prison. By twelve, he was committing petty crime, living on the streets, and being abused by adults, yet the system kept sending him back to the danger it knew was there. In this episode of I Catch Killers, Gary sits down with Lincoln to trace the fault lines of a childhood shaped by neglect, abuse, and a justice system that criminalised a child who simply needed care. Lincoln's story challenges everything we think we know about youth crime. This episode contains references to child sex abuse and suicide.

You're not just a people pleaser. You're running a survival response your nervous system learned to keep you safe. Most of us were taught that being agreeable, flexible, and endlessly giving was a virtue. Meg Josephson, a licensed psychotherapist and author of the New York Times bestselling book Are You Mad At Me?, says that pattern is actually a trauma response, and it's running your relationships, your sense of self, and your inner world without you even realizing it. The fawn response is the fourth threat response, alongside fight, flight, and freeze. It's the one we never get punished for. We get applauded. And that applause is exactly what makes it so hard to break. Meg breaks down the six archetypes it can take: the peacekeeper, the performer, the perfectionist, the chameleon, the caretaker, and the lone wolf. What it costs you isn't just your time or your boundaries. It's your identity. When you spend years morphing yourself to be liked in every room, you stop knowing what you actually want, feel, or believe. Meg went to a store after college and realized she didn't know her own favorite color. That's the depth of self-erasure people pleasing creates. The path out starts with one counterintuitive skill: learning to tolerate discomfort. Not fixing, not performing, not self-optimizing. Just pausing long enough to notice what's happening beneath the fawn response, and choosing something different. Are You Mad At Me?

Shomari Jackson was raised in East St. Louis, but he spent most of his childhood and teen summers in Arizona visiting his dad. He went to college in Arizona, but as he puts it, "Arizona chewed him up and spit him out." He returned home, experienced some major life events, navigated mental health issues, and finally grappled with the questions that would move him forward: Who was he? What was he capable of? How had trauma (historical, generational, personal) affected him? And most importantly, how did he want to carry himself into the world? Shomari went on to complete both his bachelors and masters degrees, and he's been advocating for equitable change in Arizona ever since.Today, Shomari is the owner and executive director of The South Mountain W.O.R.K.S. Coalition, a nationally recognized substance use prevention organization that focuses on systems change and building resilient communities in South Phoenix and throughout Maricopa County. He is the 2021 recipient of the Arizona Innovation in Health Equity Award, and on this episode, he shares what it means to reshape systems of inequity and support communities with an equity lens. Not only is this conversation timely, it's necessary. We hope you'll listen in.To learn more: http://southmountainworks.org/To connect with Shomari: shomari@southmountainworks.org or harmreduction@southmountainworks.org
Grandparents Raising Grandchildren: Nurturing Through Adversity
Do you ever wonder how to truly connect with a teen who's pushing you away, when every word feels like it could spark a door-slam or an icy silence? Are you a grandparent navigating the dizzying maze of kinship care—grappling with the fear that trauma might repeat itself, and unsure how to bridge the gap as your grandchild grows into adolescence? When “I love you” turns to eye rolls and “goodnight” is answered by a closed door, it's easy to feel like an outsider in your own home.I'm Laura Brazan, host of 'Grandparents Raising Grandchildren: Nurturing Through Adversity.'

Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1783DM Danny Morel says your suffering didn't start with a bad relationship or a career setback. It started the day you were born. The moment you left the womb, fear entered. Your parents' unresolved pain, the arguments, the stress, the silence, was already imprinting into your subconscious before you could walk or talk. By age seven, you had written the story: I'm not enough. I can't be me. I can't speak my truth. Danny's own mom lost her mother at 13 days old. His father was disowned and couldn't finish a sentence without stuttering. Both passed their wounds down without ever knowing it. Lewis admits his own voice was locked for over 30 years. Healing starts here. Not with the symptoms. With the root.

Today's guest is someone whose story and message deeply touched me. As a volunteer clergy member at our local jail, I have the privilege of working one-on-one with inmates to help them discover hope, healing, and the belief that no matter what mistakes they've made, their past does not have to define their future.Recently, I attended a district conference with other volunteers and several former inmates who have completely turned their lives around. It was there that I had the privilege of hearing Tony Taylor speak and sing. His story was powerful, honest, heartbreaking, and inspiring—and I immediately thought, “More people need to hear Tony's story.”Tony shares his journey of growing up feeling like he didn't belong. Born to a Black father and Native American mother, he struggled deeply with identity, racism, bullying, and trauma from a very young age. His childhood was filled with instability, abuse, addiction, violence, abandonment, and unimaginable pain. He experienced sexual abuse as a child, exposure to drugs and domestic violence, and by his teenage years he was already battling alcoholism, drug addiction, and destructive coping mechanisms.In this episode, we talk openly about trauma, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), generational pain, and how unresolved wounds can shape behavior. Tony explains that while trauma does not excuse harmful actions, understanding the roots of pain can help us better understand ourselves and begin the healing process.Despite the chaos surrounding him, Tony graduated from high school, attended college, played football, and started a family. But the trauma he carried inside eventually caught up with him. In a tragic situation, Tony took another person's life and was sentenced to prison.What happened next is what makes Tony's story so remarkable.While in court, the victim's family challenged Tony to do something good with his life. Those words changed him. Instead of surrendering to hopelessness, Tony committed himself to growth, accountability, education, and personal transformation. During his 29 years in prison, he immersed himself in self-improvement programs, life skills classes, and college education. He eventually went from student to teacher, helping mentor and teach fellow inmates. He earned his bachelor's degree and is close to completing his master's degree.We also discuss the important distinction between guilt and shame, inspired by the work of Brené Brown. Guilt says, “I did something bad,” while shame says, “I am bad.” Shame leads to hopelessness, but healthy guilt can motivate change, growth, and accountability.Tony shares how difficult it is to pursue healing and self-improvement in prison, where negativity often dominates the environment. Yet he also shares how faith transformed his life. He credits God and the healing power of Jesus Christ with changing his heart, giving him hope, and teaching him humility, accountability, forgiveness, resilience, and love.Tony openly acknowledges the pain he caused and the years he spent in prison. But instead of wasting that time, he chose to become a better man. Today, he and his son are building a new future together through a fantasy sports business venture with the goal of creating positive impact and giving back to charitable causes like St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.One of Tony's favorite scriptures is Ephesians 3:20:“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine according to His power at work within us.”In closing, I shared a story from former prison warden Clinton Duffy. When one critic told him, “Leopards don't change their spots,” Duffy replied:“I don't work with leopards. I work with men, and men change every day.”This episode is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond hope, healing, redemption, or transformation.In This EpisodeHow childhood trauma and ACEs impact behaviorThe connection between pain, addiction, and destructive choicesGenerational trauma and breaking unhealthy cyclesThe difference between guilt and shameFaith, accountability, and personal transformationFinding purpose and healing after devastating mistakesEducation, mentorship, and growth in prisonWhy people are capable of real change and redemptionBuilding a meaningful future after prisonListen, Share, and SupportIf this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who may need hope today.Be sure to subscribe, leave a rating and review, and help us spread more healing and inspiration to the world.Free Resource for HealingIf you're ready to release stress, calm your mind, and begin healing from within, visit:

Kevin shares how discipline, determination, mentorship, and community helped him break generational cycles and create a new path forward.Together, we discuss the emotional impact of survival mode, redefining Black masculinity, the power of vulnerability, building a personal board of directors, and practical steps anyone can take to begin creating financial stability and long-term success.In this episode:• How Kevin escaped survival mode and changed his life• The 3 D's: Desire, Discipline, and Determination• Why vulnerability became his greatest strength• The importance of mentors and community support• Redefining Black masculinity and emotional wellness• Building wealth one step at a time• Breaking generational poverty and traumaConnect with Kevin "KAYR" Robinson:Website: https://kayrmotivates.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kayrmotivates/

This week, they are joined by the soulful, sultry, ready-to-save-the-world therapist extraordinaire, Shimeka Arnold!The couch gets real comfortable real quick as Shimeka drops absolute gems on everything from her early days as an elementary school conflict counselor (shout out to the yellow shirts!) to the profound impact of epigenetics and generational trauma in the Black community.But the real breakthrough happens when the conversion flips to relationships, mental health, and the specific pressures Black men face. Mike gets put in the hot seat about his own hesitation toward therapy, leading to a powerful, paradigm-shifting breakdown of what "strength" actually means. Shimeka completely deconstructs the colonizer-ingrained mindset that men have to carry everything alone, explaining why vulnerability isn't a weakness—and why a true partner is there to help share the emotional weight.From hilarious breakdowns of "energy vampires" and how to hit them with boundaries, to a legendary analysis of a classic James Baldwin and Nikki Giovanni discussion, this episode balances deep, therapeutic wisdom with the signature comedic chemistry you love.Plus, Shimeka leaves the listeners with some powerful, free energy-work mantras to help shift your mind, protect your peace, and transform your daily life.Contact Shimeka for all your therapy needs and energy work.www.LovelyDayFamilyTherapy.com@LovelyDayFamilyTherapy

Episode 108 | Soul Inheritance. This episode explores how the Family Soul shapes inherited patterns, hidden loyalties, and the challenges we experience, revealing that many of the burdens we carry may belong to previous generations rather than ourselves.

We always promise to pull back the curtain on real relational work, but this week, we are right in the thick of it. In this raw and deeply transparent episode, Trey and Lauren unpack a real-time relational rift that occurred just days ago. What started as a seemingly "small" lie via text message; Trey claiming he was playing in a golf tournament just to avoid an event, became the catalyst for a profound exploration of trauma responses, defensive coping mechanisms, and the long road of generational healing.They break down exactly what happened when the truth came out, how old wounds from past marriages and family histories immediately flooded the bedroom, and the exact step-by-step tools they used to intervene at the level of physical sensation to find their way back to connection.Key Takeaways:• Trey confesses to bending the truth to escape an obligation, acknowledging his dislike for lying but falling into a childish trap of "jazzing up" reality. Lauren shares the immediate somatic impact of the confession; feeling her body drop into a free-falling vortex due to past trauma with a lying father and a gaslighting first husband.• Lauren breaks down the clinical anatomy of a trigger. When a threat enters the relationship, it creates overwhelming physical sensations, which drive us toward old safety-seeking behaviors. These behaviors inevitably impact and trigger our partner, spinning the couple into a reactive loop.• Trey and Lauren map out their respective morning-after coping mechanisms. Lauren recognizes her body wanting to flee to the "separation bus" and slipping into an over-functioning "child maid" archetype. Meanwhile, Trey unpacks his "Soldier of Fortune" shadow side; the urge to isolate, run away, and believe it's just easier to be Peter Pan on his own than to pay a massive emotional toll for a mistake.If you want to learn how to map your own attachment cycles, identify your safety-seeking behaviors, and build a relationship container strong enough to hold your shadows and your triggers, let's do the work together.Request your free 15-minute consult at sexedforyou.com/freeconsult.About ThemLauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia, where Lauren owns and operates Sex Ed for You.

Black on Black Cinema dives deep into Is God Is (2026), Aleshea Harris' feature directorial debut adapted from her Obie Award-winning stage play. Starring Kara Young as "The Rough One" and Mallori Johnson as "The Quiet One," the film follows twin sisters bearing the disfiguring burn scars of a childhood tragedy, ordered by their bedridden mother to kill the abusive father who destroyed their family. With Janelle Monáe, Sterling K. Brown, Vivica A. Fox, Erika Alexander, and Mykelti Williamson rounding out the cast, and Tessa Thompson and Janicza Bravo producing.We analyze Harris' genre-blending, part western grind house, part noir, part dark comedy; and how she translates her stage play to cinema. We break down how the film confronts generational trauma, absent and intimate partner violence, and the totality of Black womanhood with brutal honesty. Sterling K. Brown cast against type as a villain is inspired. Black women's rage played straight, not for laughs or shame, is the film's greatest achievement.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

Send us Fan MailIn Episode 253, host Andrea Atherton sits down with Laziena Hodge for a deeply honest conversation about self-awareness, relationships, and the unmet emotional needs that quietly shape our behaviors. Together they explore how many of the ways we react, overgive, people-please, shut down, or seek validation were learned as survival strategies long before adulthood. This episode invites listeners to look beneath the surface of their patterns with compassion and curiosity, asking not “What's wrong with me?” but “What part of me is still longing to feel seen, safe, or loved?” Through vulnerability and reflection, Andrea and Laziena discuss the importance of learning to meet our own emotional needs so we can show up more present, grounded, and authentic in connection with others.The conversation also dives into the powerful truth that relationships become mirrors for healing and growth. Intimate relationships often reveal the parts of ourselves we have avoided, abandoned, or disconnected from, offering opportunities to heal old wounds instead of repeating them unconsciously. Andrea and Laziena explore how conflict, triggers, and emotional reactions can become doorways into deeper self-understanding when approached with awareness instead of blame. They also touch on the ways many people overgive in relationships hoping to receive love in return, and how healing begins when we stop abandoning ourselves to earn connection.Andrea and Laziena beautifully discuss how our relationships with our children can also awaken profound inner child healing. Parenting often reflects back the emotional experiences we had growing up, inviting us to break generational cycles and offer both ourselves and our children more compassion, presence, and emotional safety. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that healthy love does not come from losing ourselves in others, but from learning to know, nurture, and honor ourselves first. If you have ever struggled with repeating relationship patterns, emotional exhaustion, or seeking worth outside yourself, this conversation offers insight, healing, and hope for creating more conscious and connected relationships.Lazina Hodge - lazina.com30-minute Consultation with Andrea https://www.andreaatherton.com/booking-calendarAndrea Atherton Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/Love Anarchy Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/podcasthttps://loveanarchypodcast.buzzsprout.comLove Anarchy Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/loveanarchypodcast/Andrea Atherton Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/andreaatherton-17/

For years, I couldn't give myself permission to heal.My parents were good to me. They loved me. By every conventional measure, I had a good life — and that made it almost impossible to look at my own pain and call it what it was.Then I read Mark Wollyn's book and everything shifted.The pain you're carrying doesn't have to have started with you. Your parents went through things. Their parents went through things. All of that unresolved fear and survival patterns lives in the body, gets passed forward, and becomes the water you swim in without ever knowing it's there.That realization didn't break me. It freed me.And now, standing at the threshold of fatherhood, this conversation has never felt more personal. Epigenetic research shows that a father's stress profile and unresolved patterns imprint on his child. That knowledge has made me more intentional about my own healing than anything else ever has.This episode is for anyone who has ever felt like something was off but couldn't explain why.What You'll Discover:The difference between attachment trauma and generational trauma — and why your body can't always tell them apart.Why you can have a good childhood and still carry deep wounds — the pain you're holding may have started with someone you never even met. Science now proves this is not metaphor. It's biology.What epigenetic trauma transfer actually means — and the studies that prove unresolved trauma leaves a measurable signature in DNA that passes to the next generation.Why your intimate partner is your most powerful healing container — what's unresolved with your mother gets projected onto your partner. That's not a flaw. That's the doorway.What epigenetic resilience means — healing doesn't just stop the transmission of trauma. It actively passes forward a signature of strength to every generation that follows.The Biggest Takeaway:You are not broken. You are carrying something that was never fully yours.When you heal, your DNA changes. What passes forward to the next generation shifts — not the wound, but the resilience.If you are thinking about becoming a parent, this is the most important work you can do. Not the nursery. Not the savings account. Your nervous system. Your unresolved patterns.That is the inheritance that matters most.It didn't start with you. But it can end with you.Connect:
Dr. Mariel Buqué opens with a revelation that stops you in your tracks: trauma isn't just something that happened to you, it is something that was passed down to you at the genetic level, beginning at conception. Most people move through life in a low-grade survival state, reacting to triggers they cannot explain, carrying the emotional weight of ancestors who never got the chance to heal. This is why depression, anxiety, and a persistent sense of not being enough feel so impossible to shake, they were wired in long before you had any say. Dr. Buqué walks you through how to regulate your nervous system daily, how to challenge the limiting beliefs that run your life, and why healing your body first unlocks your ability to think, create, and finally thrive. The work is hard and it bends you into uncomfortable shapes, but today is always a good day to start breaking the cycle.
