Relationships Through the Looking Glass

S2E16 - Trauma Bonds in Relationships


Listen Later

The episode will discuss the dynamic of trauma bonds in relationships and what are the potential outcomes that result in this very complicated and common issue. We discuss questions such as why is it important for people to understand what a trauma bond is, if there are external issues within the black community can increase the likelihood of a trauma bonded relationship, how culture sets up environments that support trauma bonds and if you can heal past a trauma bond.

Guest Host: Big Smash host of Bet the House Podcast


The world is a wonderland...the same one Alice found herself in. Everything is distorted and nothing appears real, while the fakest thing can feel like the most authentic experience.

The podcast will take a look at how our perceptions of ourselves and the world around us impact how we relate to one another. With a male and female perspective from guests in different fields and life experiences, we aim to use real-world examples of how the looking glass self-theory has an impact on all relationships. We will address societal, cultural, and mental health concepts in everyday terms as we work towards personal growth that allows us to build authentic relationships and attract connections meant for us.

While there may have been mental health concepts discussed, this podcast is not meant to be a substitute for diagnosis or mental health care. If anything in this episode triggered you, please seek the care of a professional mental health provider in your area.
