In this episode of RECLAIM, I interview psychoanalyst and author Dr. Galit Atlas about what it means to address and heal wounds that didn't originate in our own lives but in the lives of our parents or grandparents—wounds that are now repeating in our experiences. Intergenerational trauma can profoundly affect us, often without our awareness. And it begs the question, how do you address something that doesn't even belong to you?

Many of us face this question when we are grappling with feelings of being hurt and misunderstood. Why does the other person get to act in any which way but we don't?

There are a lot of difficult parts of being human, and all of those things tend to revolve around feelings that arise within us that are hard to tolerate. Feelings that we have never been taught to feel. Feelings that we have been told are bad. Feelings that now, when they arise, overwhelms, paralyzes and collapses us. In this new series on RECLAIM called Reclaiming What Is Hard, I want to break down some of these difficult feelings, shed light on what they may mean, and explore different ways of thinking and relating to them so that you may find wisdom in what is hard. In this episode, I explore envy, jealousy and the destructive force underlying the longing for what we do not have. To grab the show notes go to www.ThaisSky.com/podcast/212.
