HOW TO RESPOND (or Not) to a Hurtful Letter from Your Adult Child//When the words from your adult child cut deep, it's hard to know what to say—or whether to say anything at all. In this video, I’ll walk you through a clear, grounded approach to responding (or not responding) to painful letters, texts, or messages from your child. You’ll learn how to protect your peace, set emotional boundaries, and discern what your next step should be.
This isn’t about fixing the relationship overnight—it’s about finding your footing again, with calm, wisdom, and healing.
And if you're ready for deeper support, I invite you to join me at the RISE Retreat this October in Florida. You'll connect with other moms walking a similar journey, gain tools that actually help, and hear my daughter share her side of our estrangement and healing story.
🕊️ You're not alone. You're not powerless. And this could be the turning point.
