She’s a Chinese woman in her 40s. No siblings. No softness. Just pressure, perfection, and silence. In this deeply emotional and honest interview, Lina opens up for the first time about the trauma she endured growing up under China’s one-child policy. Her story is one of invisible wounds — the kind that come from cold parenting, impossible expectations, and a culture where obedience is everything. This is not therapy. This is not advice. This is a space for truth. Lina did not want to be seen on camera — and we honor that. What you’ll hear is real. Raw. And possibly something you or someone you know has quietly lived through, too. If you’re listening to the audio version on Spotify, Apple, or any other podcast app — the full video with subtitles is available on YouTube. ⸻ 🧠 Topics we explore in this interview: • Strict Asian parenting and emotional neglect • Growing up under China’s one-child policy • How childhood trauma manifests in adulthood • The hidden cost of “high achievement” households • Why so many seek healing later in life • Psilocybin as a possible path forward (indirectly touched) 📩 Got a question, comment, or story to share?
