Ep 115: Breaking the Cycle: How I Healed Estrangement Across Two Generations
About this episode
What happens when a mom who helps others heal from estrangement has experienced it from both sides? In this deeply personal episode, Kim shares her raw and honest story of estrangement - both as a daughter who left home at 14 and as a mom whose adult children pulled away.
From heated arguments that led to years of silence, to watching her own kids disappear after joining the Marines, Kim reveals the painful patterns that repeated across generations. She opens up about becoming a "desperate victim" in relationships, how it affected her marriage, and the jealousy she felt watching other families.
But this isn't just a story of pain - it's a story of hope. Kim shares how she found healing through her L.O.V.E. M.E.N.D.S. framework and discovered that reconciliation was possible on both sides. If you're struggling with an adult child, this episode will remind you that your story isn't over and healing is possible.
