The Childhood Trauma Most Parents Never Realize They’re Passing Down | Bryan Post | Ep. 158
What if your child’s behavior is not defiance, but a stress response?
In this powerful episode of A Healthy Point of View, Sam Tejada sits down with child behavior and trauma expert Bryan Post to explore how early experiences, family patterns, stress, and emotional disconnection can shape a child’s behavior for years.
Bryan shares his personal adoption story, explains how trauma can begin before birth, and reveals why punishment, yelling, isolation, and excessive consequences often fail to create lasting change. He also breaks down how stress affects memory, emotional regulation, relationships, and the developing brain.
Together, Sam and Bryan discuss childhood trauma, generational parenting patterns, emotional suppression, screen dependency, psychiatric medication, breathwork, mindfulness, nutrition, and the importance of parents regulating themselves before trying to correct their children.
This conversation offers a healthier approach to parenting—one rooted in awareness, connection, communication, and love.
When stress rises, we always have a choice: repeat the old pattern or pause, breathe, and respond differently.
