The Hardcore Therapist 124.5- Choosing Your Marriage Without Abandoning Your Kids

Send a text

What happens when growth feels like guilt?

In this episode, I share something personal: the excitement of building a new life with my husband and the unexpected sadness and guilt of leaving my adult children in another state.

We explore the difference between abandonment and expansion, what attachment theory actually says about distance, and why prioritizing your marriage in adulthood isn’t betrayal it’s healthy differentiation.

If you’ve ever felt torn between loving your children and choosing your next chapter, this episode is for you.

Secure attachment survives distance. And growth doesn’t mean you’re leaving anyone behind. 💛
