Basically Unbothered

Breaking Cycles, Healing Friendships: A Generational Trauma Conversation


Listen Later

In this episode, Gabi and Heiress dive headfirst into the generational chaos we all inherited without signing a contract. We’re talking dissociation as a family pastime, conflict avoidance masquerading as “peace,” and why so many of us learned to shrink ourselves before we ever learned to breathe deeply.

The conversation gets real about how money trauma shows up in adulthood, why looking “put together” is basically survival mode in heels, and how childhood conditioning still tries to run the show when we’re grown and tired. Between astrology tangents, friendship honesty, and calling out the patterns we didn’t realize we were repeating, this episode is equal parts therapy session, comedy hour, and a soft reminder that healing is messy—but we’re doing it anyway.

If you’ve ever looked at your reactions and thought, “Wow… that’s not even mine, that’s my grandma’s,” then pull up a chair. We’re unpacking the baggage our families handed us, and we’re doing it with humor, honesty, and a little bit of delusion to keep us going.
