In this episode of the Unbreakable Podcast, Kait and Josie get brutally honest about healing, boundaries, and breaking cycles. From the weight of passed down trauma to the reality of toxic family ties, they explore what it means to set boundaries, choose your peace, and stop letting the past dictate your future. This isn’t about blame, it’s about ownership, healing, and creating your own version of a happy ending (even if it doesn’t look like the fairy tale you imagined).

Big Takeaways from this episode:

Waking up and chasing your passions is a gift, don’t take it for granted.

Trauma shows up in how we coach, lead, and parent.

Boundaries aren’t selfish, they’re survival.

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow.

Healing won’t always look like a “happy ending” and that’s okay.

Choosing yourself is the first step in creating your own ending.

Empathy is the antidote to shame.

Your actions will always expose your true priorities.

Not every relationship will meet your expectations and that’s freedom.

Self-awareness and conscious choices are the backbone of resilience.


Listener Q&A: “What if I want a relationship with my toxic parents?” Kait and Josie dive deep into the heartbreak, the shame, and the power of walking your own path.This episode is about taking back control, owning your choices, and building a life that reflects who you really are.
