Laura and Bernhard discuss intergenerational trauma, how we unconsciously inherit trauma and the shadow from our parents and family line, and how we can process and heal it. They talk about family constellation work, unconscious loyalty, and the hidden rules of the toxic family system, how child abuse has been normalized and woven into the culture for generations, the four unconscious themes that can get set in motion in a family, and much more.
