In this latest episode, I dive deep into the often unspoken challenges of healing from parental relationships, especially within the Black community. Growing up, many of us are taught to respect our parents unconditionally. But what happens when those same parents overstep boundaries or fail to support us?

I share my personal journey of healing from not just one, but two biological parents and a step-parent. It's a raw reflection on the importance of recognizing parental mistakes and committing to the journey of healing.

From navigating how parents introduce new partners to addressing the pride that can sometimes hinder parental accountability, I explore the intricate dynamics between parent and child.

As we honor Black History Month, I urge you to take a moment to reflect on your own experiences and seek the resources necessary for healing. Let's embark on this journey together, one step at a time.

Bonus: You can also watch the full episode on my YouTube channel.
