So, we’ve talked about the trauma. We’ve heard from our parents’ generation. Now… how do we actually heal?
In this final part of our launch series, host Torera brings everyone back to the table - the younger generation, the parents, and a psychologist - to talk honestly about what healing looks like in real life.
We unpack the myths, the awkward apologies, and the slow steps toward peace:
💭 How do you forgive without forgetting?
💭 What does accountability look like when the trauma is generational?
💭 Can therapy, faith, and culture work together instead of against each other?
It’s messy, emotional, and sometimes hilarious, because healing in families always involves a little bit of wahala.
This isn’t about being perfect; it’s about being honest. The family loop ends here.
🎙️ Family Meeting - where wahala meets wisdom, and where healing finally gets the mic.

It’s wild how much of what we call “personality” is actually inherited pain.
In this first episode of Family Meeting, we unpack the crazy, unexpected ways intergenerational trauma shows up - in how we love, parent, argue, and even chase success. From “tough love” and silent homes to perfectionism and people-pleasing, we explore how unhealed family wounds still shape us today.
💭 In this episode:
This isn’t about blame. It’s about awareness, compassion, and finally putting words to what so many of us feel.

We’ve talked about how intergenerational trauma impacted us… but what about the generation that came before?
In this second episode of Family Meeting, we sit down with a therapist and a pastor from the older generation to uncover the pressures, fears, and unhealed experiences that shaped their parenting. From survival during migration and poverty, to colonial legacies and religious expectations, we ask the tough but necessary question: what shaped them, and what do they wish they could have done differently?
💭 In this episode:
• The hidden wounds behind “tough love”
• How faith, fear, and culture shaped parenting choices
• Why emotional expression felt unsafe
• What the older generation wants the younger ones to understand
• Building bridges: how both sides can begin to heal
This isn’t a blame game; it’s an invitation to empathy. By hearing their stories, we start to see how pain travels through generations, and how love can too.
