🎙️Ask Me Anything – E20: Am I Really Selfish for Not Visiting My Dad More?

In this episode, I respond to a question from an anonymous listener who writes:“My dad keeps saying I ‘never come see him’ but he’s never once offered to drive to me. I’ve got two kids, a job, and no extra money for travel. Am I really the selfish one here?”If you’ve ever been guilted into visiting a parent — even when your life is stretched thin — you’re not alone. We unpack the expectation that adult children should always be the ones to make visits happen, and why that’s not fair or sustainable.Inside this episode, we’ll talk about:Why “you never visit me” guilt trips hurt more than they helpThe imbalance adult children face when parents expect one-sided effortHow guilt erodes connection instead of creating itPractical ways to respond that honor both your reality and your relationshipIf you’ve ever felt selfish or ungrateful for saying “no” to a visit, this episode is for you.📝 Want to submit a question for a future episode?Nothing is off-limits (well, almost nothing).⁠Submit here⁠ anonymously or with your name — whatever feels safest for you.👉 https://forms.gle/1uYJ87Y2Vag6KYCeA🧠 If this episode spoke to you, share it with someone who might need it. Let’s break the silence — together.Ready to take the next step?Download the FREE handout, “⁠5 Things Shame Resilient People Do Every Day⁠” to start grounding your life in values, not shame.⁠Book a free 25-minute discovery call⁠ to explore personalized coaching or programs that support your next step.Stay Connected:Subscribe on ⁠Spotify⁠ or ⁠Apple⁠, and leave a review to share your thoughts.⁠YouTube⁠⁠Website⁠💬 Visits should be about joy and mutual effort — not guilt or obligation.#AskMeAnything #FamilyBoundaries #ShameResilience #AdultChildren #AdversityRising
