A toxic childhood environment might be one in which your needs aren't met emotionally, physically, socially, mentally. And it's often defined by some level of trauma. Adults who have toxic parents and a toxic relationship with their parents are not even able to recognize that those behaviors were inherently wrong or miscalculated until they're older.
In this episode we discuss the characteristics of toxic parents and the impact they have on our development and adulthood. We dive into narcissistic parental abuse, intergenerational trauma, overcoming a toxic upbringing and how to establish boundaries.
