Diary of My Trauma – Episode 5
Our relationships—whether with family, friends, or partners—are deeply influenced by our past experiences. In this episode of Diary of My Trauma, trauma coach Precious takes a heartfelt look at how childhood environments shape our adult relationships and offers strategies to heal and build healthier connections.
The Impact of Trauma on Relationships Journey
The way we were nurtured as children plays a crucial role in how we interact with others. Those raised in safe, supportive homes often develop secure relationships, while those who grew up in critical or emotionally distant environments may struggle with trust, communication, and self-worth.
Precious shares her personal journey, reflecting on the challenges of having a difficult relationship with her mother and how it influenced her interactions with women throughout her life. She also explores how her father’s nurturing nature positively impacted her relationships with men.
Recognising Unhelpful Patterns
Trauma can create subconscious patterns that shape our interactions. If you find yourself in repeated cycles of unhealthy relationships—whether romantic, professional, or friendships—it’s worth reflecting on:
- How do I talk to myself?
- What do I believe about my worth?
- Do I tolerate behaviours that don’t serve me?
Breaking the Cycle
Healing starts with self-awareness. Precious highlights key strategies such as journaling, open discussions with trusted individuals, and reprogramming limiting beliefs. She emphasises that improving relationships begins with the relationship we have with ourselves.
Final Thoughts
If you’re struggling with relationships, start by looking inward. By understanding past wounds and nurturing self-worth, you can attract and maintain healthier, more fulfilling connections.
