This week, Crissle is answering your questions LIVE! Today’s callers are opening up about complicated family relationships, supporting loved ones through mental health challenges and knowing when it may be time to walk away from a friendship.

One caller is questioning whether to continue pursuing a relationship with her father after he abruptly stopped speaking to her following a misunderstanding.

Another caller is looking for guidance on how to support an aunt whose increasingly concerning behavior has created conflict within their family and church community.

The final caller is struggling with whether to confront her best friend after a series of troubling choices left her questioning if their friendship still aligns with her values.

Crissle shares advice on emotional maturity, navigating difficult family dynamics, approaching loved ones with compassion, having honest conversations and recognizing when a relationship may have run its course.
