What does it really mean to be a present parent? And what does your child actually need from you to feel seen, heard, safe, and connected? In this episode of Becoming Untriggered, Lavinia and Andrew sit down with their daughter to explore respectful parenting from a child’s perspective. They talk about building a stronger relationship with your child, understanding their individual needs, what helps children feel safe enough to talk to their parents, and why presence and connection often matter more than having the “perfect” parenting strategy. Learn about parental wounds, emotional regulation, repair after parenting mistakes, and why it’s never too late to do your own inner work and become a more present, connected parent. 00:00 Respectful Parenting From a Child's Perspective 01:00 Can Parents Repair After Making Mistakes? 05:00 What Do Children and Teenagers Actually Need? 12:00 How to Understand Your Child's Emotional Needs 17:00 How to Create Emotional Safety for Your Child 26:00 Parenting Isn't One-Size-Fits-All 33:00 Is It Ever Too Late to Become a Better Parent? 36:00 Teaching Children Emotional Intelligence Through Role Modeling 👉 For more support, connect with us on Instagram @becoming_untriggered_podcast – Resources:  Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-past Andrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coaching Book a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session –  📱 Connect with Lavinia:  https://www.laviniabrown.com  https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert 📱 Connect with Andrew:  https://www.andrewlynn.net https://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer

How honest should you be in a relationship? Is honesty always the best policy, or can telling the truth sometimes create conflict, hurt or even threaten the relationship? In this episode of Becoming Untriggered, we explore whether you are showing up as the same person in every area of your life, or whether old patterns, fear of rejection and the need for safety have taught you to become someone different depending on who you're with. Should you tell your partner everything about your past? How much should you share about who you were, the things you're ashamed of, and the experiences that shaped you? And when does being honest create deeper trust and connection, versus when do you need to process something for yourself before bringing it into the relationship? 01:45 – Honesty vs. Safety: Should You Always Tell the Truth? 04:25– Should Parents Tell Their Children the Truth? 06:25 – Should Your Children Know About Your Past? 10:50 – How Childhood Trauma Affects Honesty in Relationships 13:25 – How to Build Safety and Trust in a Relationship 20:35 – Becoming Your Authentic Self Can Feel Scary 24:50 – Should You Tell Your Partner Everything About Your Past? 29:25 – Can Telling the Truth Actually Hurt Your Relationship? 👉 For more support, connect with us on Instagram @becoming_untriggered_podcast – Resources:  Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-past Andrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coaching Book a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session –  📱 Connect with Lavinia:  https://www.laviniabrown.com  https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert 📱 Connect with Andrew:  https://www.andrewlynn.net https://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer

Many men don’t seek therapy or emotional support until their relationship is breaking down, their stress becomes unbearable, or they reach a personal crisis point. In this episode of Becoming Untriggered Podcast, Lavinia and Andrew explore why men avoid therapy, suppress emotions, and struggle to ask for help, the role women often take in relationships when they become emotionally aware first, and how this impacts relationships, marriage, parenting, mental health, and emotional connection. 01:10 – Why Men Wait Until Crisis to Ask for Help 06:00 – Childhood Trauma & Emotional Repression in Men 09:30 – Men Look for External Solutions Instead of Healing 11:50 – Traditional Therapy Doesn’t Work for Many Men 14:47 – How Men & Women Process Emotions Differently 19:00 – Conflict in Relationships Can Trigger Healing 22:00 – How to Raise Emotionally Healthy Boys 24:00 – Men Need Better Emotional Tools 👉 For more support, connect with us on Instagram @becoming_untriggered_podcast – Resources:  Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-past Andrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coaching Book a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session –  📱 Connect with Lavinia:  https://www.laviniabrown.com  https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert 📱 Connect with Andrew:  https://www.andrewlynn.net https://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer

Why do some leaders seem reactive instead of regulated? Why does the news trigger anxiety? Why does the world feel so overwhelming right now? In this episode of Becoming Untriggered, we dive deep into why so much in the world feels chaotic, corrupted, and out of control, and what that has to do with unhealed childhood wounds. We explain the concept of conditional versus unconditional love, and how lacking true emotional safety in childhood can lead to self-worth being tied to achievement, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and external validation. You’ll also walk away with practical tools to manage fear, build safety in your body and relationships, and regulate your nervous system—so you don’t carry external chaos into your home and inner world.  This conversation is especially relevant if you’re struggling with anxiety, powerlessness, or just want to understand the emotional climate of our times. 00:30 – Are Leaders Acting from Childhood Trauma? 04:00 – Conditional vs Unconditional Love Explained 09:50 – How Lack of Self-Love Impacts Empathy: Trauma Patterns 12:30 – Reacting vs Responding (Emotional Regulation) 16:00 – Why the News Triggers Anxiety 20:15 – How to Heal Your Inner Child to Stay Regulated 👉 For more support, connect with us on Instagram @becoming_untriggered_podcast – Resources:  Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-past Andrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coaching Book a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session –  📱 Connect with Lavinia:  https://www.laviniabrown.com  https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert 📱 Connect with Andrew:  https://www.andrewlynn.net https://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer

In a world where “success” is often defined by grades, achievements, and fitting into a predefined path, many children grow up disconnected from who they truly are. In this episode of Becoming Untriggered, we explore how to raise authentic kids, children who feel safe being themselves rather than becoming mini versions of their parents or living out inherited expectations.

Why do I keep ending up with the same type of partner? Why does betrayal hurt this much? Healing after betrayal isn’t just about letting go of what happened, it’s about understanding why the same patterns keep repeating. In this episode, we break down the deeper emotional and psychological layers behind betrayal, including attachment wounds, trauma bonds, and the unconscious beliefs that shape who we choose and why we stay.

How do rites of passage shape women’s lives? In this episode, midwife, teacher, and feminine wisdom keeper Jane Hardwicke Collings joins Lavinia Brown to explore how menstrual shame, birth trauma, and menopause have shaped women’s identities for generations, and how we can reclaim these rites of passage as sources of power, not pain.

You sit down to meditate, and instead of peace, you feel panic. Your mind races, your body buzzes, and every part of you wants to get up and do something else. If that’s you, you’re not failing at meditation—you’re likely trying to use it before your nervous system is ready. If you've ever thought “I can’t meditate,” this episode is exactly where you should start. In this episode, we talk about why meditation often feels impossible. We unpack the real reasons you can’t “just sit still”, from trauma response and nervous system dysregulation to inner child wounds and coping mechanisms that once kept you safe. You’ll learn how to start gently, how to use sensory tools to anchor when you’re overwhelmed, and how to stop comparing your practice to someone else’s highlight reel. Whether you’ve tried to meditate and given up, or you’re curious why it triggers you instead of calming you. You will learn how to build safety in your body first… so meditation can finally work for you, not against you. – Resources:  Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-past Andrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coaching Book a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session –  📱 Connect with Lavinia:  https://www.laviniabrown.com  https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert  https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert 📱 Connect with Andrew:  https://www.andrewlynn.net https://www.instagram.com/andrew.g.lynn https://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer  https://www.youtube.com/@traumainformed
