In this week’s raw and layered conversation, Tiffany and Megan unpack the tangled link between validation, safety, and trauma—especially for young women learning to navigate adulthood. What starts as a story about a daughter’s risky decision turns into an honest exploration of how early wounds shape the way we seek attention, interpret love, and protect ourselves. The two also dig into parenting adult kids, communication gaps in relationships, and the lasting effects of military and childhood trauma. It’s not neat, but it’s real—because healing rarely is.
