What If 'Normal' Was Never Safe? | Lisa Gerardy

What does “normal” really mean when your childhood was anything but?
In this emotional and eye-opening episode, Tiffanie sits down with Lisa Gerardy, author of Chasing Normal: Finding Love After Surviving Physical and Emotional Abuse, to uncover what it's like growing up in generational trauma and how to heal from it.

From being abused by a family member at age two, to navigating unhealthy relationships, Lisa opens up about her long journey to self-love and finding a healthy, lasting partnership. She shares how dark humor became her survival tool, how therapy helped her unlearn toxic patterns, and why "normal" isn’t one-size-fits-all.

This episode will make you cry, laugh, reflect—and believe in the possibility of healing. Whether you're coming out of trauma, still stuck in it, or supporting someone who is, Lisa’s story is a must-hear.
