How does unhealed trauma create a silent divide between parents and children — and how do we begin to break the cycle?Today we had the pleasure of speaking with Ali Mohamed Abdu Heggi — CEO of Peacefulness Ltd, award-winning youth advocate, social scientist, and mental health practitioner. With over 20 years of leadership and honours like the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, Ali has dedicated his life to empowering young people, families, and communities. In this conversation, we dive deep into how trauma carried across generations creates silent disconnection between parents and children — shaping how they speak, listen, and understand one another. We explore the emotional aftermath of conflict, migration, and colonisation on diaspora communities, and the urgent need to build resilience, healing, and true connection. An honest, powerful conversation about breaking cycles, reclaiming trust, and leading with compassion. 🌍✨#youthempowerment #mentalhealthawareness #traumahealing #generationalhealing #Leadership #diasporavoices
