While this podcast often speaks to the estranged parent, please know that it also helps speak to us as estranged children, and in some way helps to heal us even if we know our parent isn’t listening and isn’t doing the work. The episode on Divorce & Estrangement spoke to me so loudly. As a parent myself, I do question how my mother could have allowed her child to feel the way I did and how she still lacks the ability to self reflect or understand. Sometimes it’s the parent who abandons and estranges from the adult child as well and we are left wondering why we just don’t matter enough and maybe never did. Thank you Kreed for this work and these messages.
