Why Chasing Your Estranged Adult Child Backfires (And What to Do Instead)


Listen Later

Are you afraid that if you stop chasing your estranged adult child… you'll lose them completely? So many moms feel that same fear — but constant reaching out, overexplaining, and emotional messages often push them farther away instead of opening the door.

In today's episode, I'm breaking down how to stop chasing your adult child without giving up hope, and how to shift into calm, steady, pressure-free communication that protects your heart while leaving the door open for them.

You'll learn: ✨ The real difference between chasing and loving presence ✨ Why pressure makes adult children pull away ✨ What healthy, faith-based hope actually looks like ✨ Gentle ways to reach out that don't feel like chasing ✨ How to build a life that isn't on pause while you wait

If you're emotionally exhausted, anxious, or constantly second-guessing yourself… this episode will help you breathe again.
