This episode continues our dive into generational trauma as sisters Nicole and Melody interview their mother, Lisa. The hosts analyze their own familial genealogy through interviews, oral histories, genealogical records, historical documents, geospatial analyses, cultural awareness and mental health knowledge to better understand generational trauma in their family.
