When life takes an unexpected turn, how do we stay connected to the people we love without overwhelming them?
Today's episode asks exactly that. Liza, mother of 3 navigating a serious health diagnosis, wrestles with how to talk to her adult children about what’s happening and she finds herself holding a complex tension:
How do I let them in, without making them responsible for me?
We explore what it means to share difficult truths with care, to honor each person’s emotional capacity, and to stay in relationship without over-functioning or shutting down.
This episode also touches something deeper: the quiet weight of self-blame. The belief that we should have done better, taken better care, or prevented what’s now unfolding. We counter that idea with the possibility of meeting ourselves with compassion instead of judgment.
This is a conversation about love in its most honest form: messy, tender, and real.
Join regular live calls where students in the school bring real relationship dilemmas. We slow things down and I'll help you see what's actually happening and how to respond with more integrity, strength and care.
You will find a safe space for live discussions and a supportive community of like-minded, open-hearted humans.
