In this follow-up episode, Tammy gently expands on her recent conversation with relationship clarity coach Bre Waltas, diving deeper into how growing up in dysfunctional or chaotic homes shapes our identity, attachment patterns, and nervous system responses.

Tammy explores why survival, not self-discovery, becomes the priority in childhood trauma — and how that survival wiring follows us into adulthood. She explains how identity loss, people-pleasing, emotional hypervigilance, and trauma bonds are not personal failures, but intelligent adaptations the body learned to stay safe.

Listeners will learn:

1. Why familiar pain can feel safer than unfamiliar peace
2. How trauma bonds are driven by nervous system chemistry, not weakness
3. Why logic and willpower alone cannot break unhealthy attachment cycles
4. How healing begins by shifting from “What’s wrong with me?” to “What did my body learn?”
5. How to gently rebuild identity through self-awareness, safety, and compassion

Tammy reminds listeners that healing is not about becoming someone new — it is about returning to the authentic self that was always there before survival took over. She also speaks to the power of being a cycle breaker, choosing conscious healing, and moving from survival into thriving.

This episode is an invitation to come home to yourself with grace, courage, and self-trust.

Returning guest Bre Wolta, relationship clarity coach and EFT practitioner, joins us once again for a powerful and deeply relatable conversation about how growing up in dysfunctional families shapes our adult relationships.

In this episode, Bre and I explore how early experiences with addiction, instability, and emotional neglect can impact identity, boundaries, and self-worth. Bre shares how these environments often lead individuals into patterns of codependency, trauma bonding, and repeated attraction to narcissistic or emotionally unavailable partners.

We break down the psychological and biochemical dynamics of trauma bonds, explaining why unhealthy relationships can feel addictive and so difficult to leave. Bre also walks listeners through the narcissistic relationship cycle, including love bombing, devaluation, and discard, offering practical insight into how to recognize red flags before becoming deeply entangled.

A central theme of this conversation is the importance of developing a strong sense of self. Bre emphasizes that identity, values, and self-awareness are the foundation for healthy boundaries and authentic connection. Through both professional insight and personal experience, she offers gentle, realistic guidance for rebuilding self-trust and emotional stability after years of relational confusion.

Listeners will walk away with a deeper understanding of why they feel the way they do in relationships, along with compassionate encouragement that healing is not only possible, but within reach when supported by awareness, community, and intentional self-discovery.

In this follow-up episode, Tammy expands on last week’s heartfelt conversation with author Kimberly Conte and explores the missing piece so many adult children of dysfunction run into: awareness isn’t always enough to create real change.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know why I’m like this… so why do I still feel stuck?” this episode is for you. Tammy explains how people-pleasing, indecision, and chronic self-doubt are often not personality flaws at all, but nervous system survival patterns, especially the fawn response.

You’ll learn why self-talk and mindset work can feel impossible when your body is still living in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn, and how healing becomes easier when you start with safety in the body. Tammy shares a simple 90-second nervous system reset you can use in real life, along with practical boundary phrases to help you stop overexplaining and start building self-trust in small, sustainable ways.

This episode is compassionate, grounding, and empowering—because you’re not broken. You’re protected. And you can learn a new way.

1. Why insight doesn’t always lead to change
2. The nervous system’s role in people-pleasing and self-abandonment
3. How to regulate your body before trying to “think positive”
4. A quick 90-second reset for safety and clarity
5. Simple boundary phrases you can borrow right now
6. How self-trust is rebuilt through tiny moments of honesty

In this deeply moving and honest episode, I sit down with Kimberly Conte, author of Who Am I Really?, a woman whose life story speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt abandoned, broken, or unsure of their place in the world.

Kimberly shares her journey through a rough and painful life shaped by childhood bullying, family dysfunction, parent loss, and personal heartbreak. She opens up about how these early experiences affected her identity, self-worth, and sense of belonging, and how she slowly learned to rebuild herself from a place of hopelessness into one of empowerment.

At the heart of Kimberly’s message is this powerful truth: no one has to walk their healing journey alone. Her story reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there is always someone who cares, someone who understands, and someone willing to help. Through vulnerability and courage, she shows that survival can become strength, and pain can become purpose.

Kimberly’s book, Who Am I Really?, was written to help others feel less alone in their struggles and to offer hope to those who may believe they are beyond healing. Her story stands as living proof that abandonment, loss, and trauma do not get to define the ending of our story.

This episode is a heartfelt invitation to anyone who feels lost, unseen, or hopeless to remember that connection, self-acceptance, and support can lead to profound transformation.

You can connect with Kimberly and learn more about her journey on Instagram here:

2. Feeling lost is human, but hope and help are always available.
3. Childhood bullying and family dysfunction can deeply shape adult identity and relationships.
4. Healing does not have to be done alone.
5. Self-acceptance and self-love are essential parts of reclaiming who we truly are.

Joy isn’t something we wait for once life settles down—it’s something we choose, even in the middle of uncertainty. In this powerful conversation, Alexi Bracey invites listeners to rethink what it truly means to thrive after hardship.

Drawing from her lived experience as a cancer victor and resilience expert, Alexi explores the meaningful distinction between happiness and joy—highlighting joy as a deeper, steadier force that can exist even during life’s most difficult seasons. Rather than framing resilience as sheer endurance, she reframes it as an intentional, transformative journey rooted in gratitude, emotional intelligence, and kindness.

Throughout the episode, Alexi shares practical ways to elevate emotional well-being through daily practices such as affirmations, laughter, and conscious acts of compassion. She emphasizes how small moments of kindness can create lasting ripple effects, strengthening not only personal resilience but also the collective energy of the communities we move through.

This conversation serves as a reminder that healing doesn’t require perfection or constant positivity. Instead, it grows through awareness, self-compassion, and the courage to find meaning within challenge. Listeners will walk away feeling encouraged to move beyond survival mode and into a more intentional, joy-centered way of living.

In this heartfelt episode, poet and community builder Teri Petz joins Adult Child of Dysfunction to explore the profound healing power of words. Through her personal journey, Teri shares how writing and poetry became a lifeline—helping her navigate adversity, reconnect with hope, and shift her focus from heaviness toward beauty, light, and meaningful connection.

Teri has spent years hosting open mic events that create safe, encouraging spaces for people to express themselves authentically. In 2025, she expanded this mission into virtual Zoom open mics with a central theme of encouragement, recognizing how deeply needed supportive spaces are in today’s world. Together, we discuss how sharing our stories—whether through poetry, journaling, or spoken word—can foster emotional healing, self-acceptance, and a renewed sense of belonging.

This conversation highlights how writing can gently help individuals reclaim their voice, especially those who have felt silenced by past experiences or trauma. Teri emphasizes that you don’t need to be a “writer” to benefit from expressive writing—only willing to show up honestly and with compassion for yourself. Through community, creativity, and encouragement, healing becomes not only possible, but deeply transformative.

Listeners are invited to reflect on their own inner dialogue, explore writing as a therapeutic practice, and consider how encouragement—both given and received—can change lives.

In this powerful and heart-centered episode, I’m joined by Kristen Renee, a three-time author and holistic healing guide, for a deeply meaningful conversation about reclaiming health, wealth, and purpose after years of chronic illness and personal transformation.

Kristen shares her decade-long journey navigating autoimmune challenges—an experience that ultimately led her to create her 12-part foundational framework designed to help individuals reconnect with their bodies, heal from the inside out, and rebuild their lives with intention. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, Kristen invites us to see the body as a communicator—one that offers wisdom, signals, and guidance when we’re willing to listen.

Throughout our conversation, we explore the powerful interconnectedness of physical health, emotional well-being, mindset, and environment. Kristen speaks openly about the role of self-love, boundaries, nervous system support, and reconnecting with nature as essential components of sustainable healing. This episode is a reminder that true wellness isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about alignment, awareness, and honoring your own inner truth.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, overwhelmed by healing, or unsure how to move forward after illness or adversity, this episode offers both hope and practical guidance.

1. Kristen’s personal journey through autoimmune illness and long-term healing
2. The inspiration behind her 12-part framework for reclaiming health, wealth, and purpose
3. Why listening to your body is more powerful than simply treating symptoms
4. The connection between past trauma, lifestyle, and chronic health challenges
5. How self-love, boundaries, and nervous system regulation support healing
6. Simple, grounded practices to begin rebuilding alignment and well-being
7. Rewriting your personal narrative and choosing a more empowered path forward

1. Healing becomes more accessible when complex processes are broken into simple, actionable steps
2. The mind and body are deeply connected—addressing emotional and past experiences can transform physical health
3. Self-advocacy and self-trust are essential parts of any healing journey
4. Spending time in nature, improving sleep, and practicing mindfulness support holistic well-being
5. Reclaiming your purpose is a vital part of reclaiming your health and vitality

In this powerful and deeply reflective episode of Adult Child of Dysfunction, I sit down with Martha Burich to explore healing beyond childhood trauma, reclaiming self-worth, and breaking generational cycles of dysfunction.

This is a teaching episode filled with insight, encouragement, and hope for anyone ready to move out of survival mode and into purpose, leadership, and emotional freedom.

In this deeply moving and insightful episode, we sit down with Barbra Banner, a certified psychic evidential and trance medium, to explore the healing potential of mediumship for those navigating grief, trauma, and loss.

Barbara shares her personal journey into mediumship—one that unfolded later in life and was profoundly shaped by years of volunteer work in crisis intervention and trauma-related settings. These experiences not only deepened her compassion but also strengthened her understanding of the emotional and spiritual needs of individuals facing profound loss.

Throughout the conversation, Barbara offers a clear and grounded explanation of what mediumship truly is: a process of connecting with the energy of loved ones who have passed in order to provide evidence, validation, and comfort to those left behind. She emphasizes the importance of evidential mediumship—details, memories, and emotional truths that help affirm the continued presence of loved ones in spirit and foster trust in the experience.

We also explore the nature of grief as part of a broader spiritual journey. Barbara encourages listeners to reframe loss not as an ending, but as a transformation of connection. Through heartfelt stories—including a powerful example of a mother seeking connection with her deceased son—she illustrates how mediumship can bring peace, reassurance, and emotional healing.

A recurring theme in the episode is the importance of intuition, trust, and openness. Barbara reminds us that “believing is seeing,” inviting listeners to lean into their inner knowing rather than relying solely on logic or proof. She also shares her belief that intuitive and psychic abilities are not reserved for a select few—everyone has the capacity to strengthen their intuition with practice, patience, and self-trust.

The conversation concludes with a gentle but powerful reminder: joy, laughter, and hope are not betrayals of grief, but essential companions in the healing process. Even in the midst of sorrow, Barbara encourages listeners to seek moments of happiness and connection, honoring both their loved ones and their own lives.

This episode offers comfort, curiosity, and possibility for anyone seeking reassurance that love transcends physical form—and that healing can occur when we allow ourselves to remain open to connection beyond what we can see.

In this powerful and timely episode, we welcome Dr. Kate Lund, a distinguished clinical psychologist, resilience expert, and speaker with over 20 years of experience helping individuals, families, athletes, and organizations thrive under pressure. Affiliated with renowned Harvard Medical School institutions, Dr. Lund brings both clinical expertise and heartfelt personal insight to the conversation.

Dr. Lund reframes resilience as far more than simply “bouncing back” from adversity. Instead, she describes it as a holistic lifestyle—one that integrates mental fortitude, emotional regulation, self-awareness, and supportive connection. Together, we explore the nuanced differences between types of trauma, how individual temperament shapes stress responses, and why understanding our unique nervous systems is key to building sustainable resilience.

A central theme of the episode is stress regulation. Dr. Lund introduces practical tools such as the relaxation response, a simple yet powerful technique that uses calming words, phrases, or mantras to counteract the body’s stress response. These practices help lower baseline stress levels, allowing individuals to respond to challenges with greater clarity, steadiness, and compassion. She also emphasizes the importance of normalizing conversations around fear, vulnerability, and emotional struggle—reminding us that resilience is strengthened in community, not isolation.

The conversation takes a deeply personal turn as Dr. Lund shares her own childhood experience growing up with a medical condition that required frequent hospitalizations. She reflects on how her parents’ emphasis on possibility rather than limitation shaped her resilient mindset—an approach that now informs her work with families navigating medical, emotional, and developmental challenges.

As anxiety and fear rise in today’s social and educational environments, Dr. Lund highlights the urgent need to teach children age-appropriate stress-management skills. From mindfulness and breathing exercises to emotional validation and open communication, she offers practical guidance for parents and educators seeking to help children feel safe, capable, and empowered in uncertain times.

In the final portion of the episode, Dr. Lund underscores the role of self-awareness and connection in building a resilient life. By identifying personal needs, practicing mindfulness, and cultivating supportive relationships, individuals can develop a resilience framework that supports growth across all areas of life—not just during moments of crisis.

This episode is a powerful reminder that resilience is a learnable, livable skill—and that with the right tools, support, and mindset, we can meet life’s challenges with courage, adaptability, and hope.
