“If adult siblings don’t get along, I can guarantee there’s a toxic parent behind it.”

This episode is part 2 of "From Mexico to (Hannah) Montana."

How does Narcissism affect and influence family dynamics? Ken and Lisa share personal stories and deep insights into intergenerational trauma and toxic behaviors. Weaponized parental favoritism leads to sibling rivalry. Generational and cultural norms only contribute to those strained relationships.

The hosts discuss the horrors of dementia and cognitive decline affecting elderly family members, and how end-of-life and estate planning are sore subjects for unaccountable adults.

Ken and Lisa shower Dr. Ramani with praise and admiration, while openly scheming to convince her to join the podcast as a guest. Seriously, does anyone have any ideas?!

[Warning: On this episode, there are references to self-harm, euthanasia, and alleged assault. Listener discretion is advised.]

When in life do you get a second chance at a first impression?

Did you enjoy the first episode, but felt something was a little off?

Here is it again. Remixed! It features the same intriguing content with optimized audio and slight tweaks. I guess you can fall in love for the first time, again.

In this first episode, Ken and Lisa discuss how toxic parents influenced their upbringings and shaped their relationships into adulthood.

Oprah dedicates an entire show to the No Contact “Trend” but refrains from revealing her own tough childhood, leading to troubling dialogue about estrangement. Also, what do President Abraham Lincoln and Brooke Hogan have in common? It might have something to do with fathers and funerals.

“Why is a 50-something-year-old watching Hannah Montana?”

In this episode, we hear how Ken’s mom, fluent in five languages, can no longer speak. To make matters worse, she fell unconscious during lunch. This is news to Lisa as she has been out of the country and shares her own tales about how her toxic mother came in like a wrecking ball and created drama and chaos while growing up Mexico. Lisa tells about the moment she realized her mother is emotionally stunted and Miley Cyrus is to blame.

[Warning: This episode deals with suicide. If you or a loved one need emotional support, call, text, or chat with a 988 Lifeline counselor for help.]
