In this episode of the Hotflash inc Podcast, host and founder Ann Marie McQueen sits down with Laura Ghita, a Romanian psychotherapist and Family Constellation practitioner, for a deeply personal and revealing conversation about how unresolved ancestral patterns can shape our midlife experiences – and how we can shift them.
Ann Marie recorded this interview several years ago, in the middle of going through menopause, just after experiencing her own Family Constellation session. What followed was a profound rethinking of how past generations and hidden dynamics impact our relationships, our health, and how we move through the world in perimenopause and beyond.
Laura explains how this therapeutic modality works, what the science says about inherited trauma, and how this work can reconnect us to our intuition, our bodies, and our personal truth. Whether you're new to Family Constellation Therapy or already curious, this episode will move you to think differently about healing – and the invisible threads that connect us all.
Highlights:
- How Family Constellation helps women in perimenopause and menopause
- Understanding the inherited beliefs about womanhood from your maternal line
- Why we can’t think our way through healing
- How trauma gets stored in our bodies – and why it matters
- The turning point when Ann Marie felt emotion linked to her great-grandmother
- Why healing is never “done” – it’s a lifelong journey
