In this episode therapist Holly Young joins host Erin to discuss essential knowledge every mom needs about trauma, human rights, and how oppressive systems impact our families and mental health.

This conversation offers vital education for mothers navigating parenting, self-care, and raising resilient children in challenging times. Learn how historical systems of oppression continue to affect our nervous systems, our children's well-being, and our family's mental health.

What moms will learn:

• How intergenerational trauma and epigenetics affect your parenting and children

• Why your stress and burnout are valid responses to broken systems

• The hidden history connecting capitalism, women's bodies, and reproductive control

• How to teach your children (especially daughters) about healthy anger and boundaries

• Indigenous community models that support family well-being • Crisis self-care strategies for overwhelmed moms with no time or energy

• Why "being neutral" as a parent or educator actually harms our children

Educational topics: intergenerational trauma, epigenetics, parenting through systemic oppression, raising empowered children, somatic healing for families, toxic grind culture, women's education and rights, teaching resilience, community care

Books discussed: Truth and Repair (Judith Herman), Caliban and the Witch (Silvia Federici), The Politics of Trauma

Essential listening for moms, educators, therapists, and anyone raising children who want to understand the systems shaping our families - and how to heal and resist together.
