Can kids heal their parents? Or is that a burden we were never meant to carry?

In Episode 3, we sit down with Madhvi Juneja to explore one of the most uncomfortable and deeply personal questions of our time: the emotional role reversal between parents and children — and the trauma, silence, and responsibility that often come with it.

This conversation unpacks how unhealed trauma shows up across generations, why parents often struggle to recognise their own emotional wounds, and how children become the first to notice patterns of fear, control, guilt, or emotional shutdown at home. We talk about why these conversations are so difficult to initiate, why confrontation often shuts parents down, and how healing requires safety — not correction.

From understanding triggers and hypervigilance to recognising authority wounds, self-talk, and the body’s role in storing unresolved emotions, the episode breaks down how trauma lives on not just mentally, but physically and relationally. We also explore why labelling everything as trauma can block accountability, how judgement and rejection kill emotional space, and why vulnerability often has to be modelled — not demanded.

This episode doesn’t offer easy answers or saviour narratives.

It questions whether healing parents is even the right goal — and instead asks what responsibility, compassion, and boundaries really look like for children trying to break generational cycles.

What if anxiety isn’t just a mental health problem?

In Episode 2, we sit down with Dr. Sid Warrier to understand what’s really happening inside the body when we feel anxious, overwhelmed, distracted, or stuck. From heart rate variability and the autonomic nervous system to dopamine, motivation, and burnout, this conversation breaks down the science behind how we feel, without oversimplifying it.

We talk about why anxiety shows up physically before it becomes mental, how movement, breathwork, and sleep regulate the nervous system, and why chasing constant dopamine hits leaves us feeling unfulfilled. The episode also explores how modern life and social media affect our reward systems, and how ancient frameworks like the Bhagavad Gita mirror what neuroscience explains today.

This isn’t about quick fixes or positive thinking. It’s about understanding your biology and learning how to work with it.
