    Feb 3 2025

    Generational trauma can feel overwhelming, especially when we unknowingly pass it down to our children.
    In this heartfelt episode, Diane Sorenson, a mentor inside my Mastery program, shares her story of uncovering the pain rooted in her upbringing and transforming it into power and connection with her family.

    In this episode, we dive into:

    • How generational trauma shows up in parenting and relationships
    • Understanding behavioral language: what actions reveal about emotions and struggles
    • The importance of owning shame and taking responsibility for deeper healing
    • How to model emotional regulation for your children

    Diane reminds us that when we turn inward to heal, we create space for stronger connections with ourselves, our children, and the generations to come.

I didn't care about anything but keeping her alive

Heather, I cant believe I heard someone go through what my daughter and I went through in relation to my pulling her out of school. I have had SO MUCH SHAME, because of this. Thank you for this topic!
