The Reconciled Relationships Podcast

The Hidden Cost of Chasing Your Adult Child's Approval


Listen Later

Do you ever feel like your peace rises and falls on whether your adult child accepts you—or rejects you? Chasing their approval comes with hidden costs: anxiety, loss of identity, unhealthy patterns, and even spiritual exhaustion. In this video, I'll uncover what it really costs you and how to find freedom again.

Here's what you'll learn:

  1. Why seeking their approval creates an emotional rollercoaster 🎢

  2. How it quietly erodes your identity 🌫️

  3. The patterns it reinforces—like enabling and over-apologizing 🔄

  4. The path back to freedom and peace ✨

💬 If you're tired of carrying this weight alone, I'd love to invite you into two safe next steps:

  • Book a private discovery call where we'll look at what kind of support could finally bring you clarity and strength. https://calendly.com/sallyharris-discoverycall/30min

  • Join me at the RISE Retreat—a powerful weekend designed to help you rebuild confidence, faith, and joy in community.
