⚠️⚠️ Trigger Warning: Conversations about complicated mother/daughter relationships, emotional trauma, estrangement, grief, boundaries, favoritism, and healing. • This video may offend some people. And honestly… that’s okay. • Not every mother/daughter relationship is healthy. Not every child grew up feeling emotionally safe, protected, supported, or chosen. Some people had incredible mothers. Some people are still healing from theirs. Both realities can exist at the same time. • If this video upsets you, maybe ask yourself why before immediately becoming defensive. Sometimes the truth feels personal when the shoe fits. • I’m not speaking for everyone. I’m speaking for myself and for the many people who quietly struggle during holidays like Mother’s Day while the world expects us to perform happiness, gratitude, closeness, or forgiveness on command. • This conversation is uncomfortable because it’s honest. • And honesty is what starts healing. • To everyone carrying grief, confusion, guilt, anger, relief, sadness, peace, distance, or complicated emotions this week: you are not alone, and your feelings are valid. • Please be gentle with yourself this weekend!!!
