Episodes 97, 98 and 99 form a 3-part series outlining an overall stepwise approach to reconnecting with your estranged adult child.
In this second episode of the series, Tina talks about how long to spend on Step 1 before progressing to Step 2, and why you don't have to rely on an estranged adult child to provide information about why they're estranged or how to make repairs.
In addition to providing ideas for specific activities that are helpful for Step 2, Tina normalizes the nervous feeling of walking on eggshells, and being afraid to mess up. This too shall pass!
