Early and invisible trauma wounds from our family of origin shape so much of how we move through the world—how we love, how we protect ourselves, how we communicate, and what feels safe or unsafe in relationship. These wounds are often quiet, buried beneath survival patterns we don’t even realize we carry, yet they can show up in our friendships, romantic relationships, parenting, and sense of self. In this episode, I’m exploring how those early experiences live on in the body and nervous system, and how healing begins with bringing compassion and awareness to the parts of us that learned to survive first.
