Episode Summary: 

In today’s episode of the Rise Station Podcast, Prunella Harris walks us through the importance of pioneering the change we’ve always needed. She talks about the importance of doing things differently, its impact on our future generation, and some helpful tips to help one get started.

Rise Tribe Takeaways: 

• You can break the cycle of generational trauma in your family by being the change you needed as a child.
• We may not have gotten everything we needed in our childhood but the best part about it is that we still survived - the worst is behind us.

• As much as you may want to avoid it, healthy conflict is an inevitable part of life.
• Sometimes our parents’ (or caregivers') emotional needs weren’t fulfilled in their childhood which is what results in them not fulfilling ours. They’re only doing what they were taught.
• How to Be The Change You Needed:

1. Identify the gaps in your childhood that are affecting your life in the form of conflicts.
2. Be willing to be self-aware and determine what changes need to be made within yourself.
3. Educate yourself since you don’t have a template to follow in order to make this change.
4. Evaluate and assess yourself regularly.
5. Prioritize your healing.
6. Become the change that you want to see.
7. Share your knowledge and experience with other people.
