À propos de cette écoute
Why do some families make you feel guilty for keeping your peace?
Why does it feel like you have to share your wounds just to be seen as real?
In this episode of Family Matters with Instructor Mike, we dive deep into the hidden cultural dynamic of toxic collectivism — when families confuse emotional exposure with relational loyalty. We explore how children are often trained to overshare, overexplain, and overperform just to earn trust or maintain belonging.
Backed by developmental science from Erik Erikson, Lev Vygotsky, and Bessel van der Kolk, this episode unpacks:
• How “performing your pain” begins in early childhood
• The difference between transparency and emotional control
• Why private speech and emotional boundaries matter
• How trauma can be passed down as a requirement, not just a memory
You’ll walk away with language, clarity, and the permission to protect your story, especially in families that pressure you to bleed for validation.
Because in healthy families, you don’t have to explain your peace to be believed.
