This week we are talking to therapist Johanna Lynn who specializes in inter-generational trauma and family inherited trauma. Johanna has been working as a therapist for the past 20 years and brings immense experience and knowledge to the podcast. We discuss how we are very much organized by the experiences of our families, which in turn has an impact on what we carry forward from our past and into our relationships today.

Terri gets vulnerable about a common argument her and her husband get into and how its interconnected with her history and something she lacked growing up. We discuss the most common things parents come to Johanna for and we talk about the type of impact relationships between partners can have on the children they are raising. 

We also discuss navigating personal feelings and challenges in a separation and divorce and how to separate those so the kids can have access to both parents.

Johanna also gives tips on parents challenged by their children's behaviours and how the behaviours could be a reflection of our own childhood's unresolved needs.
