When I launched this podcast 3 years ago, I would have never been able to predict that this monumental 100th episode would be shared with my Mother. In fact, at the time, we weren’t even speaking to one another. This conversation tracks my own ancestral history from the life of my grandmother, to my mother, to me. We speak about family patterns, trauma, the mother wound, codependency, and the excruciatingly painful two years we spent apart from one another in 2017 & 2018. If you have a Mom, or a daughter, or want to reinvigorate your belief in hope, change and forgiveness, this conversation shouldn’t be missed. Thank you, Mom, for sharing this moment with me, and to Doren and Sherry for helping us in spirit, every step of the way. Also, a huge thank you to all of the wonderful, unimaginably beautiful humans that listen to this podcast. Here’s to many more…
