Shownotes

(In other words, just another lighthearted episode…)

Ok, so what happens when a mother tells her teenage son she was sexually assaulted?

And how do you actually teach empathy in a world that’s forgotten what it looks like?

This raw and unfiltered episode dives into these important conversations, blending dark humor, vulnerability, and truth. Heather and Emily explore how trauma, parenting, and modern culture collide, exposing why silence feels safer than honesty and how fear is passed down across generations.

From survivor psychology to the chaos of raising kids in the age of AI and social media, this episode asks the hard questions everyone avoids

●     How grooming and fear shape silence and self-blame

●     What it means to raise sons who respect boundaries and daughters who protect themselves

●     How social media destroyed empathy and accountability

●     Why AI intimacy and digital detachment are redefining connection in the worst way

●     18:10 – How fear, shame, and silence shape survival behavior
