Summary

What makes a cycle breaker? In this episode, we are privileged to sit down and have a profound conversation with Dr. Mariel Buqué, a remarkable leader in the field of trauma. Dr. Mariel holds a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology from Columbia University and is now a distinguished Trauma Psychologist. She's the author of Break The Cycle: A Guide To Healing Intergenerational Trauma, a must-read for anyone seeking to understand and heal from the impact of intergenerational trauma.

In this episode Dr Mariel shares her own story of generational trauma and her path to healing. What truly stands out in our conversation is the revelation that when Dr. Mariel was pursuing her degree, the clinical model all psychologists were trained under was not based on trauma. Students, including Dr. Mariel, were consistently sharing stories of trauma repeating across generations, but the term "intergenerational trauma" was never used throughout her years of study, and this was less than a decade ago. This fact highlights how recent the concept of intergenerational trauma is. We are among the first generations with the tools to comprehend how generational trauma is perpetuated, how we can address it, and what it means for our descendants. We are at a unique juncture in history, with a golden opportunity to break these cycles for our families – an honor and privilege we can't take lightly. Dr. Mariel shares invaluable insights in this episode, and we invite you to join us in exploring her story and expertise. You can find Dr Mariel Buqué spilling the Tea on Instagram and via her Website

0:00.0	Cyclefaker is someone that definitely just understands, like, I want better, not just for myself,
0:09.0	but I want better for the people around me. I want better for the next generation. I want better
0:14.6	for the global community that I'm a part of. I want better for my, even my local community, or the
0:20.9	people that are a part of my cultural identities, or that share cultural identities with me.
0:27.4	And you being that person that understands that you deserve peace, and you deserve
0:35.2	a different legacy for yourself, for your children, and for your children's children, and
0:40.8	everybody that comes thereafter. That in and of itself makes you a Cyclebreaker.
0:46.4	Welcome to how my parents raised me. I'm Dawn Chitty. When we are born, we arrive here as pure
0:59.0	and perfect souls, and the direction our life takes from that moment is deeply connected to what
1:06.1	our parents bring to our lives. And what our parents bring to our lives is deeply connected to what
1:13.1	their parents brought to their lives. And that's the cycle of families. I have always craved
1:20.4	connection with real and raw stories to understand what makes you you, what makes you the absolutely
1:29.3	unique human that you are. Stories are medicine for the soul. They can connect us, and they can change

2:17.6	Bouquet. The link is in the show notes. You know, sometimes I open my computer and I receive the
2:24.8	most beautiful gift. A notification that somebody has left a review. It doesn't happen every week,
2:33.0	but when it does, I sit and quietly send thanks to the person who sent it. Because when somebody
