Healing Estrangement: When Forgiveness Doesn’t Mean Reconciliation with Jodi LaRae Cunningham


Listen Later

If you’ve ever experienced a broken relationship... whether with family, friends, or even yourself. This episode is for you.

In this deeply honest conversation, Ashley Henriott sits down with Jodi LaRae Cunningham, author, strategist, licensed chaplain, and advocate for reconciliation, to talk about estrangement: what it really means, where it starts, and how to find peace whether restoration happens or not.

We cover:

  • Jodi’s personal story of estrangement with her children... and what led to healing
  • The 3 “kingdoms” influencing your relationships (and how to know which one you’re in)
  • The difference between healthy boundaries and walls
  • Why pride and unspoken expectations quietly damage connections
  • How to forgive without putting yourself back into unsafe situations
  • Practical, Christ-centered tools for finding peace and self-awareness

Ashley also opens up about her own journey with family estrangement, grief, and the decision to love without holding onto anger or offense.

Whether you’re a mother, daughter, or simply someone navigating fractured connections, this episode will give you hope, perspective, and actionable ways to move forward.
