This week on Sunburnt Souls, we welcome a very special guest—my daughter- for a heartfelt conversation about what it's like to grow up with a parent navigating mental illness.

From her perspective as a teen and daughter, she opens up about the emotional, spiritual, and relational challenges that come with having a parent with bipolar disorder—and how faith gives her strength and perspective.

In this honest and hope-filled episode, we discuss:

• What it’s like for a child when a parent struggles with mental health.
• How Christian faith shapes resilience, empathy, and self-understanding.
• The unique pressures teens face and how Milani supports her peers through their own battles.
• Parenting, love, and connection through the highs and lows of mental illness.

Whether you’re a parent, teen, or someone walking through mental health challenges, this episode offers wisdom, encouragement, and a glimpse into faith through the eyes of the next generation.
