Could your fear, anxiety, and depression (and other issues) have less to do with your current experiences and more to do with what your parents and grandparents experienced? Short answer: Yes.

Inherited trauma is real. Research shows it plays a far greater role in our physical and emotional health than ever before realized. We humans biologically pass down our trauma experiences to our children and grandchildren. It's not a just a "feeling" thing: Our DNA actually changes based on the traumas of prior generations.

Listen in as Mark Wolynn, leading expert in the field of inherited trauma, and bestselling author of "It Didn't Start With You: How Inherited Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle" as he explains this life-changing phenomenon and what we can do to heal from trauma that spans generations.
