Living While Loving Your Child Through Addiction

EP118 Why You Can’t Say No To Your Child – Even When You Want To


Listen Later

If you’ve ever decided not to give your child money and still felt like your heart was being ripped out so you said yes anyway… this episode is for you.

In this episode, I’m unpacking what really happens when we stop giving from a place of survival, and why that decision can feel so excruciating, even when we know it’s right.

Learn:

• Why saying no can feel like you're severing the last thread of connection

• What your child might be experiencing at a nervous system level when you say no

• The Survival Cycle that keeps moms stuck in guilt, resentment, and exhaustion

• And the new pattern I call the Connection Cycle that helps you relate in a way that’s aligned with true connection, love, and your values

This episode is not about judgment.

It’s not about telling you what to do.

It’s about helping you understand why it feels so hard to stop, even when you’ve already decided that giving isn’t truly helping.

And it’s about offering a new path forward where you don’t have to choose between your peace and your child.
