Going No Contact

In this months bonus episode I address the challenging question of whether to go 'no contact' with family members. This decision is deeply personal and must be made from a grounded and self-nurturing perspective, without external influence. I discuss my own experience of going no contact with my mother for 20 years and my siblings for several years, underscoring the emotional difficulty and the necessity of such decisions for healing from trauma. I hope this episode provides hope and guidance in distinguishing between inadequate and toxic family relationships, in addition to exploring considerations like victim mentality, self-care, and the role of a support system. I stress the importance of making decisions that promote thriving rather than merely surviving, and encourage you to find what genuinely works for you in your journey towards healing and growth
