Episode 3: What Makes Us Who We Are?

Dana

In this eye-opening episode, Dana dives into one of the most foundational questions in personal growth: Why are we the way we are?

From the nature vs. nurture debate to the undeniable influence of early childhood experiences, Dana explores the many factors that shape our personalities and behaviors—including parenting, in-utero experiences, generational trauma, and more. With warmth and vulnerability, she shares her own story as a highly sensitive child and how her mother’s consistent emotional support helped reshape her sense of self.

This episode is both a reflection and a call to conscious action—for ourselves and our children. Dana explains how beliefs about the world and the self are formed in the earliest years of life, and why seemingly small moments of connection (or disconnection) can have lifelong effects.

You’ll also learn how attachment styles are formed, how narcissistic traits can be influenced by childhood environments, and why awareness is the first step to meaningful change.

Whether you're exploring your own childhood or raising a child of your own, this episode offers powerful insights into the deep connection between our past and our potential.
