I come from this fully loaded, as a child, a grandchild, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a mother, a grandmother.
Michelle's story is one of courage and resilience. Growing up in a household marked by physical violence, Michelle carried the weight of ancestral trauma through her childhood and into adulthood.

Through vulnerability and courage, Michelle has not only found peace but has also inspired others to embark on their own healing journeys.
This episode delves into the impact of childhood trauma, the ripple effects of addiction on family dynamics, and the transformative power of sharing one's story. Tune in to hear Michelle's compelling journey and gain insights into the strength it takes to heal from generational wounds.
