Exploring Intergenerational Trauma with Dr. Mariel Buqué

On this episode we speak to Dr. Mariel Buqué, a Dominican psychologist, intergenerational trauma expert, and the author of "Break the Cycle," a book that focuses on healing wounds of intergenerational trauma. She has been featured on major media outlets, including The Today Show, CNN, The Real, and ABC News. Dr. Buqué helps us explore intergenerational trauma from a Latine perspective. We talk about what it is, how we can recognize it, why it’s so difficult to break cycles of trauma, and how we can start to heal. Healing from intergenerational trauma is not just about us; it’s about our communities, and the positive ripple effect we can leave for future generations.

Please note that Brenda makes reference to an NBC article, but the correct source is ABC News in an article that has since been updated regarding the Cleveland Texas shooting.
