Note to All Listeners: Ghosting is defined as: The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication (Oxford Languages). When you leave an abusive situation without saying "goodbye," it's not ghosting, it's "self-protection." When you quietly exit a relationship after a boundary has been violated, it's not ghosting, it's "self-respect."

What do you do when your adult child ghosts you?  In this episode, Gretta is  joined by Tina Gilbertson, who is a psychotherapist, author, and co-founder of the Reconnection Club. Tina's work is centered around educating and supporting parents who want to reconnect with their estranged adult children. If your child has ghosted you, this is a must-listen.

This episode is all about what to say to somebody who is ghosting you. 
Ghosted? Many people say, "let the dead Rest In Peace," or,  "Ignore people who are ignoring you." But the truth is, ghosts often don't stay dead in our minds - we often continue to think about them - even when we don't want to. But how should we respond to the sound of silence? 
Erin Fisher, a certified mediator, relationship coach, and founder of Atlantic Mediation Services, collaborated with me to create 6- scripts to send to your ghost. These copy-and-paste messages are for anyone who has been ghosted in love and romance. We cover many scenarios, from being ignored in a dating app conversation to if your partner ghosted you.
Each message will guide you and give you a voice in the situation.
