Hello, I’m Stacy, the host of Mothers, Lies and DNA Surprises Podcast. Thank you for being here.  Today I am sharing part two of Rebecca’s story and the rest of our conversation!  

As Rebecca’s story continues, she shares that first phone call with her raised father after he was told the truth about Rebecca’s paternity. 

Rebecca talks about getting her control back after conforming her whole life for her mother. How she decided to do better than her mother at any cost, she wants to be a better human. The one thing I thought while I listened to Rebecca talk about her interaction with her raised mother and father is that it is like standing up to a bully really. They are manipulators that we’ve always had in our lives. 

She will also share how therapy is invaluable. We talk about the grief of losing somebody that is still alive, which is very powerful to say that out loud.

Those of us with our Mothers still alive ask ourselves “how will I feel when I get the call that my mother died?  Each of us have to answer this question for ourselves, Rebecca has a great perspective on this.

She wants others to know that you can come out the other side. That it’s ok to grieve the mother you never had.

As a bonus you will hear one of her pups interject during our interview.

Thank again Rebecca for sharing your story and for everyone who is here and knowing that we are not alone! 

If you would like to connect with Rebecca you can find her on Facebook at Rebecca Neale or you can email me at [email protected].
