Ep.10- 'Breaking The Cycle' with Maggie Nick
Podcast: Beyond Survival - The Therapy Podcast with Katie McKennaPublished On: Fri Aug 22 2025
Description: This week I’m joined by Maggie Nick, a recovering burned-out overachiever, people-pleaser, perfectionist, pushover, and shape-shifting chameleon, what she calls a Recovering Good Kid. Now a trauma therapist, parenting expert, and cycle-breaking mother, Maggie knows firsthand what it’s like to grow up as “the one nobody ever needed to worry about.” For years, she thought her perfectionism and people-pleasing were simply part of her personality, until therapy at 25 revealed they were actually lifelong relational trauma responses.In this episode, we dive into what relationships look like after trauma, the challenges and breakthroughs of parenting after trauma, and how to begin breaking free from old survival patterns to build something new.Maggie Nick, LCSW, MSWFollow Maggie on TikTokFollow Maggie on InstagramLearn more about Maggie's Camp Loveable and her other offerings here.The C.A.L.M Method If you want to be notified when Katie is running the next group - Join the Waitlist today Calmer parenting and a happier home and kids is so much closer than you thinkKatie McKennaAccredited Psychotherapist, Podcast Host, AuthorBEYOND SURVIVAL - The Therapy Podcast
