#71: He Surprised Me: The Trip That Showed My Dad Could Change


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m getting real and personal as I dive into my recent trip to visit my dad. If you've been following me for a while, you probably know that my family and I don’t have the closest relationship. I’ve always been the black sheep, and our family dynamics have been, well, complicated. However, he surprised me this time.

Here's what I cover in today's episode:

- Surprising Changes in My Dad: After not seeing him for two years, I was bracing myself for the same old lectures and nagging, but see how this trip really surprised me on how he changed. 

-  Huge Life Events As A Catalyst For Change: I talk about how grief can truly change people, even dinosaurs like my dad. The loss of my mom has given him time to reflect in ways I didn’t expect.

- My Airport Reflections: After leaving him, I sat down at the airport to journal and process everything. I share those raw thoughts with you, including the mixed emotions of relief and sadness and my reflections on healing and growth after time apart from family.

 

If you’ve ever struggled with complicated family relationships or felt the weight of generational grief, this episode is for you. I’m sharing my story in hopes that it gives you a little bit of hope that change is possible—even when you least expect it.
