214. Meghan Tonjes: Reconciliation after Going No Contact with Family

Meghan Tonjes returns to the podcast to offer a different perspective about going No Contact than Oprah and Mel Robbins purport. Just because Boomers & Gen X put up with abusive behavior and authority trauma doesn't mean we have to--we have choices. The being disowned by a parent to reconciliation path CAN happen and her story is incredibly sweet. Tonjes offers a nuanced and deep reflection about her experience moving back to Michigan and Aunt life: the joys of parenting without the intense commitment.Our previous conversation, audio episode 12: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0HrT7lhY3sWjjROxDbbCLY?si=09f47219132947b8That time Tonjes filmed herself learning to dance at my aerobics class Fat Kid Dance Party when we were both in Los Angeles: https://youtu.be/Qvcyv0PsoAY?si=XHbc6KKr1e1VWBlsMeghan Tonjes on IG: @meghantonjes @oopsiebagsie @momentominisMeghan Tonjes Links including music: https://linktr.ee/meghantonjes(Patreon supporters got this episode a week early!)
