The chapters of our lives - Introducing my little sister | Michelle Yu | Ep 26

The Authentic Me: Hosted by Mel Yu

My sister (currently 22 years old) speaks with so much wisdom, so much understanding of self-development and so much awareness! I loved spending this time with my sister and our ability to have these vulnerable, honest and deep conversations.

Hear her side of the view within our family dynamics, what it was like for growing up with a broken family and trying to navigate her emotional triggers from being sexually assaulted by a trusted, father figure!

I hope this podcast highlights how important it is to have these conversations with your siblings (if it is safe to do so) and seek to do the inner work for your own healing to better your relationships.
