Exploring the pain we carry in silence and how to release it.

In this episode of W AP KOUTE M MAP KOUTE W, I explore the weight of what we don’t say — the hidden pain we carry from generations, relationships, and losses that were never spoken about.

Many of us were taught to be strong, silent, or self-contained. But silence can become its own wound — one that shows up in our bodies, our relationships, and even our sense of self.

Generational Trauma

How pain and silence travel through families when it hasn’t been healed — and how our collective history of colonization, migration, and survival still echoes in the present.

Attachment Wounds

When emotional needs weren’t fully met in childhood, we learn to perform for love, fear abandonment, or struggle to trust. These patterns follow us into adulthood until we begin to name and heal them.

Unspoken Grief

Loss that was never acknowledged — a miscarriage, a separation, a dream that never came to life. Unspoken grief hides in quiet corners of the heart, shaping how we handle endings and vulnerability.

What You’ll Learn

You’ll hear how hidden wounds often appear as anxiety, burnout, or numbness — and how practices like awareness, journaling, and grounding can help you gently release what’s been held in silence.

Healing begins when we find the courage to give words to what’s been unsaid.
