Title: Family Ties, Triggered Lies: My Story of Sibling Betrayal

Subtitle: The Day My Brother Pulled a Gun on Me

Host: Tina White

Podcast: The Trigger and The Truth

Description:

In this powerful premiere episode, host Tina White shares the deeply personal and life-altering experience of the day her own brother pulled a gun on her. More than a moment of fear—it was a rupture in the sacred bond of family, a defining trauma that shaped how she viewed trust, safety, and survival.

This episode explores the often-silenced reality of sibling violence, especially within Black and Brown families where trauma is normalized and secrets are protected to preserve family image. Tina opens up about the emotional aftermath, the grief of losing someone who’s still alive, and the long road to healing from betrayal that cuts close to home.

This isn’t just a story—it’s a mirror for those who've experienced harm by those meant to love them. If you’ve ever struggled with family betrayal, fractured sibling relationships, or hidden emotional wounds, this episode is for you.

• What happens when a sibling becomes the source of trauma
• The emotional toll of betrayal within the family
• Grieving a person who’s still alive
• Setting boundaries with family to protect your peace
• Why healing is not betrayal—it's self-preservation
