I Love You, Mom—But I’m Not Becoming You: How to Break the Cycle of Generational Trauma

You can respect your ancestors without becoming them.

In this fiercely liberating episode of The Spiritual Rebel Podcast, Mahima opens up about the invisible chains passed down through generations — and how to finally break free. Whether your upbringing looked picture-perfect or was layered with pain, generational trauma runs deeper than most of us realize. And often, the pain we carry… isn’t even ours.

Mahima shares 3 powerful ways to identify, accept, and disrupt generational cycles, from outdated gender roles to suppressed sexuality to the silent shame that lives in so many family lineages.

This is the wake-up call for anyone who's ever thought:

💬 “I love my family, but I don’t want to live the way they did.”

You’ll learn:

  • How trauma gets passed down even when it’s unspoken
  • Why spiritual rebellion is a form of healing
  • What to do when cultural tradition conflicts with your truth
  • And how to lovingly say: “This ends with me.”

Whether you’re the first in your family to question the rules or the first to rise, you’ll leave this episode feeling bold, empowered, and deeply seen.

Hit play — and start breaking cycles for good.
