I discovered this podcast in the last month and wow- it is like a warm soft blanket. As an adult that has been estranged from my mother for over 10 years, I always felt like “is it just me?” It is such a life saver to not feel alone.
Thank you for sharing your work and expertise. The profound impact it has on my quality of life is beyond any grateful words I can write in a review. I never miss an episode, and revisit them when needed. Thank you
I’ve been struggling with estrangement for 30 years. In this podcast, Whitney and her guests say all the things I’ve thought but was afraid to truly feel. Their completely non-judgmental thoughtfulness and insights have helped me so much - highly recommended.
Listening to this show has made a significant positive impact on my life. It has helped me better understand and navigate my relationship with both my family of origin and my in-laws. It has also helped me process my feelings around these complex and at times difficult relationships. Whitney provides thoughtful comments to listener questions and I really enjoy the pop culture commentary as a way to unpack family dysfunction.
Super well researched. Thanks so much Whitney, can’t put into words how helpful your podcast has been. 💜
