Back to EpisodesLive like your parents are DEAD
Description
At 20, I found out my ex girlfriend was pregnant. I stared at the ceiling for an hour, drowning in guilt, shame, and the fear of what my church going family would think.
I ended up back with her. Had another kid. Spent almost 10 years in an on and off toxic relationship, three failed engagements, all because I was chasing my dad's approval instead of building my own life.
He was a devoted Christian who wanted me married, and he never seemed to care that we weren't right for each other. I wasn't even living my own beliefs, I was living his.
In this episode I break down why so many of you are still doing the same thing: running your adult life on programming you inherited and never actually chose. I get into why re-evaluating everything you were taught isn't disrespect, it's required. And why living like your parents are dead, no longer needing their approval, is the only way you build a kingdom that's actually yours.
