Between Mothers and Daughters

In this episode, I’m joined by my daughter, Bethany — my first guest on the podcast.

We talk honestly about the space between generations — how expectations, guilt, and misunderstanding can move in both directions, even when there’s love and good intention.

This isn’t a conversation about who was right or wrong.

It’s about understanding the conditions each of us has lived inside — and how that shapes what we carry forward.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How guilt can be felt even when it isn’t intended
• The ways we misread each other across generations
• What begins to shift when there is context and honest conversation
