In this episode, Laura Milliken welcomes Heather Hughes, co-founder of Splankna and a Master Trainer who has spent more than two decades helping individuals and families find emotional freedom through Christ-centered trauma work. If you've ever wondered why your child seems to overreact, struggles with anxiety, has frequent meltdowns, or repeats the same difficult behaviors despite your best parenting efforts, this episode offers a refreshing perspective. Heather shares how childhood experiences shape the beliefs children carry about themselves, God, and the world around them—and how those beliefs often continue into adulthood if left unaddressed. Together, Laura and Heather discuss how understanding emotional wounds can transform the way we parent, replacing frustration with compassion and helping parents build stronger, healthier relationships with their children. In this episode you'll learn: Why children's behaviors often reveal deeper emotional needs Common childhood wounds that shape adult relationships How trauma influences emotional development Why trust is the foundation of healthy parenting The balance between grace, structure, and accountability Practical ways to foster emotional resilience in your children Why you don't have to be a perfect parent to raise emotionally healthy kids Whether you're parenting toddlers, teenagers, or simply wanting to understand your own childhood more deeply, this episode will equip you with practical tools and hope for breaking unhealthy family patterns. 🎟️ Want To Become a Practitioner?
