And with those questions, my life's trajectory changed. I began to search for answers.
This is the story of that journey. A journey that took me deep into past traumas to face memories I'd tried to bury my whole life. A journey that revealed how my trauma was not mine alone, but was connected to my parents' and grandparents' traumas. A journey that showed me how this transgenerational trauma had controlled my thoughts, my choices, and my life. And how it now infected my children's lives as well.
This is a story of how I finally broke the cycle of transgenerational trauma and found healing - not only for me, but for my children.
