About this episode

Geraldine Hardy discusses the challenges of personal transformation and healing from family patterns and trauma.

What happens when the old version of you no longer fits, but the new version has not fully arrived yet? In this episode of Self Care , host Geraldine Hardy reflects on liminal space, family patterns, trauma healing, and the emotional reality of becoming someone you can no longer turn back from. Drawing from her own experience growing up in a Chinese Peranakan and German family, losing her father at nineteen, navigating PTSD, and understanding family dynamics through the lens of healing, Geraldine explores why unresolved wounds cannot be fixed by money, status, or external success. She also shares insight from her book, Moments That Matter , and explains how patterns repeat until they are seen, understood, and broken. This episode explores the uncomfortable middle of transformation: the closed doors, the friendships that fall away, the pull of old identities, and the quiet knowing that the return path no longer exists. Because real growth is not always clear while it is happening. Sometimes it begins in the in-between. 🌿 Explore Geraldine’s Self-Care Programs & Order Her Book https://geraldinehardy.com 📲 Instagram: @_geraldinehardy | @_alignwithin 📺 Prefer to read? Head to…
