In this episode, Kreed shares an estranged adult daughter's story. What struck Kreed about this particular estrangement experience was the balancing act the estranged daughter was doing in an effort to help herself and her relationship with her parents while also trying to help her children to navigate their relationship with their grandparents. This estranged adult daughter wants very much to have a relationship with her biological family and is saddened that she, the one who is working towards having healthy relationships with her biological family, is targeted as the "trouble child" because she recognizes the dysfunction of the family unit. This story also involves sibling estrangement as well. —---------- http://www.TheEstrangedHeart.com Email Kreed at: TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Coaching & Consultation with Kreed Email Kreed at TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Coaching & Consultation with Kreed and AC Email Kreed at TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Don’t forget to check out AC’s podcast, In The Blood.
