from What Now · host Mary Alice Hatch

In this episode of the What Now Podcast, relationship expert Matt Townsend joins me for an honest conversation about parenting adult children, rebuilding trust, and learning how to love without being controlling. We discuss the fear parents often feel when children make different choices around faith, relationships, and independence, and how emotional safety, grace, and personal revelation can strengthen families instead of divide them.Matt shares powerful insights on navigating children leaving the Church, financial dependence, broken trust, and difficult family dynamics with more compassion and less fear.
