What We Inherit

What We Inherit Podcast: Child labor is very much alive, and it's entertaining your afternoons.

What We Inherit — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 13:30:00 GMT

What is child labor? It’s a term that immediately conjures black-and-white images of dirty kids in 19th-century factories, but when we narrow the definition to historical horrors, who are we leaving unprotected? In this episode, I expose the highly profitable reality of child labor hiding in plain sight—from the invisible domestic labor behind closed doors to the children working double shifts as online influencers for their parents' financial gain. We dive into how society weaponizes "family contribution" to excuse exploitation, and how we are conditioning an entire generation to become the ultimate obedient corporate employee before they even finish school.

Almost every invisible script we live out (our relationship with success, struggle, obligations, and how these things pressure us to erase ourselves) was originally learned within the first institution we ever belonged to: the family.

What We Inherit Podcast: What Does a Child Owe Their Parents?

What We Inherit — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 14:00:00 GMT

What does a child owe their parents? It’s a question that implies we’re born with a debt, but when did we accumulate it, and what exactly did we borrow? In this episode, I explore the crushing reality of millions of adults who are slowly crumbling under the financial, emotional, and psychological weight of supporting their parents at the expense of their own well-being. We dive into the unspoken contracts we seemingly sign at conception, and why society immediately shames anyone who dares to want autonomy over their own life.
