Why Estrangement Feels Like Getting Fired as a Mom

Has your adult child ever made you feel like you've been fired? Like you showed up every day for 20+ years… and suddenly you're shut out—with no explanation, no closure, and no place in their life anymore? In this episode, I'm walking you through the deeper emotional reality behind estrangement that so many moms struggle to put into words. Because this isn't just about distance—it's about identity, grief, and the loss of a role you lived in every single day. We're going to talk about: • The grief of losing your role as a mom • Why estrangement feels so sudden and overwhelming • The powerful reframe that can shift how you see this season • And how to stop waiting… and start rebuilding your life If you've been feeling rejected, erased, or questioning who you even are now… I want you to know—you are not alone, and you are not crazy for feeling this way. ✨ And if you're ready for deeper support… We just came off an incredible RISE Retreat in Florida—so many breakthroughs, forgiveness, and surrender happened in that room.
