I briefly talk about some of the grief I've felt in regards to the fire — the Kupuna (elderly) and keiki (children) passing away, the loss of peoples homes, loss of 200 years of culture/cultural artifacts, etc. In this episode I mention how my girlfriend and I have been taking care of our elderly neighbor since about 2017.

Episode Summary

On this episode of Escaping the Rabbit Hole, I talk to a Heather, a marriage and family therapist.

Heather talks about her personal experience with conspiracy theorists within her family. Heather shares useful information on how traumatic events can have an impact on your immune system and digs into some therapeutic techniques that can help you to cope with your family.

Heather grew up in the 90s and loved Disney, but her household changed when her mother became involved in a group that believed Disney was leading children to worship Satan.
