Childhood Trauma Recovery

Grieving a Toxic Parent Who is Still Alive (The Mother Wound) w/ Barbie.

If you've ever had to protect your peace by walking away from a toxic family dynamic, you are not alone. In this episode of Sober Psychology, I am joined by my good friend Barbie Hahn to unpack the reality of the mother wound and surviving a childhood warzone. We explore how different Enneagram types process trauma (7w8 vs. 8w7) , the unique pain of grieving a parent who is still alive , and how to reconcile faith with the necessity of hard boundaries. Barbie shares her incredible journey from escaping chaos to finding a steady anchor, and leaves us with one of the most powerful pieces of advice: how to be your own mom. Don't be a jerk, just subscribe! Keep your head up, keep your heart open, and go help somebody. Barbie makes incredible content on her Instagram account.
