Generational Trauma Explained (And Why Social Media Gets It Wrong) | C.O.R.E. #4
Is your anxiety really yours, or inherited?
In this episode of No Street Lights Core, Aaron and Tim dig deep into what generational trauma actually is… and what it definitely is not. You’ve seen the Instagram quotes. The TikToks. The therapy-speak used like zodiac signs. But real intergenerational trauma has roots in history, psychology, and even epigenetics.
In this episode, we explore:
What science actually says about trauma passed through generations
Why terms like “generational trauma” are being misused on social media
The red flags that indicate inherited trauma vs. personal patterns
Tools for identifying and healing trauma that isn’t entirely yours
How to replace toxic cycles with healthy boundaries, rituals, and community
🔎 Featuring real psychological research from the children of Holocaust survivors to modern trauma theory, plus practical advice for breaking the cycle.
This is mental health education, not pop psych bait.
Let’s separate the truth from the trends, and help you reclaim your story.
🧠 Things You’ll Learn in This Episode:
What intergenerational trauma really means (scientifically)
Why some emotions feel bigger than the situation
How your great-grandparents’ trauma could still influence your nervous system
The difference between discomfort and actual trauma
5 steps toward healing: awareness, boundaries, support, new traditions, and self-compassion
