Breaking the cycle: The keys to becoming the parent you want to be | FSTT016

How was your childhood?

This question isn’t easy to answer for most of us, let alone share with others.

What you experienced in your childhood is how you were unknowingly programmed and conditioned to live your life.

But unlike many who simply see it and do nothing about it, you’re different.

You want to break the cycle and become the parent you always needed.

To be that parent to your kids, so they have the best possible start in life.

Breaking the cycle means many things to many people. In today’s episode, we discuss breaking the cycle of generational trauma so that you can show up best for your kids and give them the start in life that maybe you never had but wanted for yourself.


In this episode, we cover

- Breaking the cycle is more than just a buzzword

- How your family will turn on you for not simply accepting what is unacceptable

- What being here says about you

- “The moment” I decided not to break a promise to my younger self and fought back

- The priceless lesson I want to impart with my daughter to empower her life and generations to come


About the Host:

Ray Bourcier - Stay-at-home father, husband, author, podcaster

A college and university environmental science graduate, Ray grew up in a toxic family and a toxic situation in Northern Ontario, Canada. As a result, he experienced the first of many PTSD events at age five, which would begin his nearly three-decade struggle with anxiety and depression.

Spending most of his life in survival mode without support, he eventually discovered and developed ways to overcome his struggles when nothing else worked.

With a passion for helping others, he made it his mission to help transform the lives and impact the worlds of eleven million people so they too can give their best to themselves, their loved ones, and their career.

An ancient Chinese proverb that Ray loves states, "To know the road ahead, ask those coming back." Ray is on the road back to offer you the support you need every step on your journey so that you, too, will be on the same road back. Ray believes that only those who've walked that road can truly understand the struggles that you go through.

Together, we will become the rising tide that lifts all boats.

Together, we are unstoppable.

In his off time, you can find Ray spending time with his daughter, reading books, watching hockey, and contemplating whether pineapple belongs on pizza.
