⚠️ Content Warning: Child Sexual Abuse

In this powerful episode of Don’t Screw Up Your Kids, host Kaleesha Washington sits down with Larissa Rhone, survivor empowerment coach, author, and nonprofit founder, for a necessary conversation about generational trauma and the cost of silence inside families.

Larissa shares her lived experience as a third-generation survivor, and explains how harm is often hidden in plain sight—protected not by malice, but by avoidance, discomfort, and unspoken family rules.

This episode explores:

• How silence allows harmful patterns to repeat across generations

• Why abuse is rarely disclosed right away

• How predators groom families, not just children

• The unintended dangers of forced affection and blurred boundaries

• What parents, caregivers, and educators can do differently to create real safety

• How survivors can begin healing without carrying shame that was never theirs

This conversation isn’t about blame.
It’s about awareness, protection, and breaking cycles that should have ended long ago.
