Listen now
Description
Join us for this week’s episode as we sit down with Dr. Carolyn Coker Ross and discuss the impact of historical and intergenerational trauma. Dr. Ross shares how trauma experienced in generations prior to ours can have a large impact on us and explain why we may engage in some of the patterns that we engage in. Dr. Ross also speaks to the importance of understanding and exploring the familial narrative of one’s family in an effort to explore both traumatic events that have led to family behavioral patterns, as well as resiliency patterns that have helped families flourish.
