אודות פרק זה
Mark Wolynn is one of the foremost experts on inherited family trauma and the author of the award-winning It Didn't Start With You — and what he shared in this episode stopped me in my tracks more than once.
We go deep on how trauma doesn't just live in our own nervous systems — it travels through generations and through our biology. Through the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and why we struggle.
We talk epigenetics, core language, somatic healing, unconscious loyalty to our family systems, and what it actually means to individuate (to come home to yourself)without abandoning the people you love, and also how to do it, without involving those people. Heal Yes.
This conversation will expand your understanding of how trauma travels through family bodies, and how to work with that. His book absolutely shifted my own perspective on my family dynamics, and lifted my own shame about how my body had adapted to that.
This one is for anyone who has ever felt like they were carrying something that wasn't entirely theirs, and who feels foggy, lost and invalidated in their struggles.
