🎙️Ask Me Anything – E5: How Do I Set Boundaries with My Mom Without Hurting Her?

from Untethering Shame · host Kyira Wackett

In this episode, I’m responding to a heartfelt question from Chris, who writes:“My wife and my mom have very different ideas about how we should raise our child and what role my mom should play in our lives. I want to respect my mom, but also build strong roots with my own family. My wife is exhausted and needs me to set better boundaries — but I’m struggling with guilt, and I don’t want to hurt my mom or make everything feel like a fight. How do I start this conversation without it becoming an attack?”We explore the deep emotional dynamics at play when you're caught between honoring your past and protecting your present. From guilt-based conditioning and lifelong family roles to radical acceptance and values-based communication, this episode is about how to step into your identity as a partner, parent, and son without abandoning yourself or others in the process.If you’re navigating family pressure, boundary guilt, or just trying to parent differently than how you were raised — this episode is for you.📝 Want to submit a question for a future episode?Nothing is off-limits (well, almost nothing).⁠Submit⁠ 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" and start making those daily shifts to break that shame cycle that's keeping you stuck in that negative headspace.⁠Book a free 25-minute discovery call⁠ to discuss different program options and find the support best fits your needs.Stay Connected:Subscribe to the podcast on ⁠Spotify⁠ or ⁠Apple⁠ Podcasts and be sure to leave a review to let us know your thoughts on this episode.⁠YouTube⁠⁠Website🧭 You can love your family and still lead from your own values.
