Episode description as stored

This week, Alex discusses the complicated reality of resenting your parents while still wanting a close relationship with them. She dives into how childhood wounds can continue to shape us as adults, why we keep hoping our parents will change, and how disappointment can pull us right back into old dynamics. She also shares advice on lowering expectations, setting boundaries, practicing radical acceptance, and protecting your peace without excusing the ways your parents may have hurt you. Enjoy!
