Episode 116
Are you caught in a loop of telling the same painful story about your adult child? Maybe it's about the birthday they forgot, the holidays they skip, or the calls they don't return. In this powerful episode, Kim reveals why our brains are wired to retell our stories and how this natural response might actually be keeping you stuck in pain and pushing your grown child further away.
You'll discover the difference between processing and ruminating, learn why every retelling reinforces negative emotions, and understand how your story might be exhausting the people who love you most. More importantly, Kim shares practical strategies to break the cycle - from setting time limits on venting to rewriting your narrative. This isn't about denying your pain or pretending everything's fine. It's about finding a healthier way to heal so you can move forward and possibly rebuild that precious relationship with your adult child.
