Episode notes

"I think passing the baton, like you said, is absolutely what it is. It is backwards and forwards because my mom will say now, like, I inspire her," she says. "We may not ever get what we need from the people who raised us, like ever." She adds that a big part of grace and compassion is acceptance for who people are,. where they are, and not trying to change the outcome.

1. Alex’s four most effective healing techniques that you can start today.

2. How it affects us to grow up never seeing our mothers have joy.

3. Why – if you think you don’t have any self-soothing strategies – you actually just have unhealthy self-soothing strategies.

4. Childhood wounds that surface in adulthood, and the path to intergenerational healing.

5. Where to begin when you never receive the apology and closure you deserve.
