When Pain Is Mistaken for Sisterhood
<p>In this episode of <strong>Greek Vibes by A&W</strong>, we engage in a thoughtful and necessary conversation about <strong>trauma bonds and hazing within Greek life</strong>. While Greek organizations were founded on principles of sisterhood, brotherhood, service, and uplift, there are moments when tradition, loyalty, and silence can intersect in harmful ways.</p><p>This episode explores the concept of <strong>trauma bonding</strong>—when shared pain or adversity is mistaken for connection—and how that dynamic can show up in hazing practices.
