About this listen

Mother’s Day just passed, and for some of us, it’s not a day of celebration. In this episode, I open up about the complicated relationship I have with my mother. I share what it was like growing up, the moments when I thought we were finally connecting, and the painful reality of feeling betrayed by someone I desperately wanted to love and trust.

I also talk about my father—the difference between his mistakes and how he chose to make amends, even apologizing until his final moments. As I reflect on the contrast between my parents, I explore the lingering struggle of letting go of hope for a relationship that never quite felt safe.

If Mother’s Day is a tough time for you, if it’s a reminder of something you never really had, I want you to know you’re not alone. Join me for an honest, vulnerable conversation about family, forgiveness, and the painful search for closure.
