RELATIONS
We don’t just leave a dysfunctional family — we leave the emotional gravity field that once defined who we thought we were.
Breaking free from abuse or manipulation is not merely psychological; it’s alchemical. It transforms the inherited patterns of guilt, shame, and obligation into self-knowledge, integrity, and compassion.
Cycle Breakers explores this passage as a spiritual initiation — a journey from conditional love to unconditional self-acceptance, from moral obedience to inner authority.
It reveals how emotional dependence and survival strategies mirror the deeper human struggle between fear and freedom — and how healing the wounds of the family system awakens the same clarity sought on every authentic spiritual path.
