should i text my ex? meg actually cried & navigating trauma with the person who traumatised you | fingers crossed ep. 35

Erica's been really emotional lately. She went to Linkin Park and we talk about some of the best concerts we've ever been to, the ones that stay with you. Then things get heavier: Erica's missing her ex and seriously considering reaching out.


Meg cried, which almost never happens, and opens up about the impact men have had on her and why emotions feel so hard to access sometimes. We also touch on jealousy between friends and what that actually reveals about us.


Erica had a big fight with her mum. Her mum was abusive when she was young, and while they've worked hard to stabilize their relationship, sometimes things still go off the rails. It's an honest conversation about what it's like to navigate trauma with someone who is traumatized themselves and yet traumatized you. How do you repair something that broken? And is it even possible?


A vulnerable, messy, real episode about emotions, relationships, and the complicated people we can't quite let go of.


🎙️ Fingers Crossed is a mental health and life podcast hosted by Erica and Megan.
