Whistleblowing your culture: Cultural Trauma and why we can't blow it off (Ft. Jenny Lee)

Dr. Uejin Kim

Trauma can happen anywhere... but what if it happened in your home. What if this was "just the way it was" for generations? What if calling it trauma risk losing the world you knew: your family? Today Jenny and I talk about cultural and generational trauma: how to differentiate toxic to non-toxic cultural traits and how you can move forward sensibly and re-write the narrative. We are both Korean American but I believe the universal insights we arrive at can be applicable to anyone.
