Does it ever feel like your vulnerabilities seem related to more than your current experience?  Check out Geoff Rickly and Tom Keeley (aka Cody and Dan) as they explore the topic of intergenerational trauma, a symptom of epigenetic expression by which biological responses to trauma may be influenced by experiences beyond our own.  Buckle up as Chinchilla Nice Nice and Dan define "Big T" trauma and "Little T" trauma, describe how the traumatic experiences of our ancestors can influence what our contemporary experiences feel like, describe methods for identifying whether our vulnerabilities are based in our experiences or those of our ancestors, and summarize strategies for overcoming intergenerational trauma.
