This episode goes there in the best way.
Shawna and Cara talk honestly about what it looks like to break generational patterns, even when it's messy.
From surviving a traumatic relationship to navigating the sneaky ways we justify our triggers, this is an episode about real healing, not perfection.
TLFMTR (Too LONG for Mom to read):
How unmanaged triggers sneak into motherhood
What it means to take personal responsibility without shame
How people-pleasing becomes survival and how to shift it
Accessible ways to begin healing even if therapy feels out of reach
Generational trauma isn't just emotional it's biological
If you’ve ever wondered whether your pain is “too much” or if you feel like you’re failing or surprised you’re still struggling, this episode is for you.
Shawna and Cara offer an invitation to pause, reflect, and heal out loud.
Because healing is a form of parenting, too.
