Why Was Grandma So Mean?
Have you ever looked back at your family and wondered:
Why was grandma so harsh? Why did grandpa abandon the family? Why was there so much silence, control, anger, or emotional distance in my family?
This program explores the deeper “why” behind difficult family dynamics—without blame, and without excusing harm.
Why Was Grandma So Mean? is a guided experience that helps you understand how trauma moves through families, how it shows up in genealogy records, and how it may still be shaping your life today.
What We’ll Explore
- What generational trauma really is (and what it isn’t)
- Different types of trauma—war, loss, poverty, displacement, abuse, illness, silence, and survival stress
- How trauma can shape behavior, parenting, emotional expression, and family roles
- Patterns in genealogy records: early deaths, institutionalization, repeated losses, migration, military service, and secrets
- How inherited patterns show up in our relationships, nervous systems, beliefs, and choices
- Ways to gently acknowledge what was carried—without retraumatizing or rewriting history
This program comes with a workbook and replay of the live event. Questions will be answered after the program so attendance live is encouraged.
Access to this program is six months. No refunds.Â
