Ep 112: An Honest Conversation With My First Love - My Son (Part 2)
About this episode
What happens when therapy makes things worse instead of better? In part two of my conversation with Nick, we dive deep into the messy middle of our relationship - the years when everything felt broken.
Nick opens up about encountering a therapist who wanted to blame everything on "mom" and why he walked away. We talk honestly about in-law dynamics, the chaos of trying to fit into a family that wasn't ours, and how I went silent when I should have spoken up.
But this isn't just about the hard stuff. It's about the breakthrough moments - when Nick learned that saying yes to one thing means saying no to another, when I realized I couldn't be the "Velcro mom," and how we both had to heal ourselves before we could heal our relationship.
If you're tired of walking on eggshells or feeling like you've lost your child to someone else's family, this episode offers real hope and practical wisdom.
