🧬 “It runs in the family” has been the go-to phrase in Black households for generations — used to explain everything from alcoholism, single parenthood, financial struggle, to emotional shutdown. But here’s the truth: it’s not a curse — it’s a cycle. And cycles can be broken.

In this raw and necessary episode of the podcast, we challenge the idea of "generational curses" in Black families and unpack the real reasons behind the patterns we keep repeating. From inherited trauma and cultural silence to lack of resources and emotional avoidance — we're calling it all out. No more hiding behind family history. No more excuses. Healing starts with honesty.

Whether you've heard, “our family don’t do therapy”, or “the men in our family always leave”, this conversation is for YOU.

🔥 In this episode, we dive into:

• Why “it runs in the family” is a mindset — not your fate
• The difference between a curse and a cycle
• How unhealed trauma shows up as family tradition
• What it really takes to break generational patterns
• Tools for starting your healing journey — and helping your family heal, too

💬 Join the conversation and let’s change the narrative for Black families — one truth at a time.
