In this powerful episode of Decoding Success, we are joined by Dr. Mariel Buqué — psychologist, intergenerational trauma expert, and author of Break The Cycle.

This conversation goes deep into what healing actually looks like, why the in-between seasons of life feel so uncomfortable, how to train your nervous system to tolerate triggers, and why breaking cycles can feel lonely — especially for the black sheep, cycle-breakers, and self-healers.

If you've ever felt like you're evolving faster than the environment around you… If you've ever felt misunderstood during your healing journey… If you're learning to receive love differently… this episode is going to speak directly to you.
