When Your Adult Child Isn’t Who You Hoped They’d Be

Every mom has dreams for her children—but what happens when those dreams are shattered? Maybe your son or daughter has chosen a destructive path, is distant and cold, or is caught in the grip of addiction. It’s heartbreaking, and it can leave you questioning yourself as a mother.

In this video, I’ll walk you through:

1. How to grieve the child you imagined without giving up hope

2. Why addiction changes the person you’re dealing with (you’re not facing your child—you’re facing the substance)

3. How to separate their choices from your worth as a mom

4. The shift that brings healing: focusing on who you are becoming

✨ If this is your story, you don’t have to walk it alone. I invite you to schedule a private discovery call with me, where we’ll talk through the kind of support that can bring peace, clarity, and strength.

💡 And if you’re ready for deeper encouragement, join us at the RISE Retreat this October. Two days of teaching, connection, and hope—surrounded by other moms who truly understand.

Are you unknowingly pushing your adult child further away? 💔 Most moms don’t realize that small communication habits—said with good intentions—can actually create more distance.

In this video, I’ll uncover the 4 biggest communication mistakes that moms make with their adult children: 1️⃣ Using guilt as a motivator 2️⃣ Defensive or qualified apologies 3️⃣ Boundary violations & dismissive responses 4️⃣ Over-explaining or justifying

👉 You’ll learn why these backfire, what to say instead, and how small shifts can begin rebuilding trust.

In this episode, we’re unpacking the hidden damage caused by “going along to get along.” If you’ve been walking on eggshells, constantly apologizing, or avoiding conflict to stay connected—you’re not alone. But this pattern doesn’t build connection. It builds resentment and distance.

• Why people-pleasing increases emotional disconnection
• How boundaries are a bridge—not a barrier
• The real reason your adult child may be pulling away
• And what you can do today to stop losing yourself in the process
