In this deeply personal and wildly cathartic premiere episode of The Chaotic Good Podcast, host Valerie reunites with her youngest sister after twelve years apart—because what better way to launch a podcast about generational trauma than by unpacking it with someone who shares your DNA and your history?

Together, they explore what it really means to break toxic family cycles without losing your mind (or your sense of humor). From questionable traditions we were supposed to pass down, to dessert-before-dinner rebellions, this episode dives into the messy, beautiful work of healing out loud. They discuss parenting ADHD kids in a world built for the neurotypical, standing firm at family gatherings when “that’s just how we do it” no longer cuts it, and what it feels like to choose evolution over obligation.

It’s vulnerable. It’s raw. It’s laced with sarcasm and soul.

🎧 Tune in for laughs, tears, sibling sarcasm, and the radical notion that healing is not only possible—but profoundly worth it.
