    The Cost of Trying to Be Kept
    Jan 21 2026
    Episode 7 dives into the relationships we form when love hasn’t always felt secure. I reflect on over-giving in friendships, repeating patterns in romantic relationships, and how my marriage became a place of both rupture and repair. This is a story about growth, accountability, and learning what love feels like when it no longer has to be earned.

  • Breaking Cycles Without Becoming the Villain

    Breaking Cycles Without Becoming the Villain
    Jan 7 2026
    What happens when you stop over-explaining, stop reaching, and start protecting your peace — and suddenly, you’re seen as the problem?
    In this deeply personal episode of Roots in Repair, I explore the quiet cost of breaking generational patterns, setting boundaries, and choosing self-respect in relationships that resist change.
    This conversation is about being misunderstood, grieving the loss of familiar roles, and learning to trust yourself when your healing disrupts the system around you.
    If you’ve ever been labeled “difficult” for choosing honesty, this episode is for you.

  • In His Absence, In His Presence

    In His Absence, In His Presence
    Dec 24 2025
    In this deeply personal episode, I reflect on my relationship with my father—one shaped by warmth and emotional presence, long periods of absence, and the complex realities of addiction and mental health.
    I share memories from childhood, the impact of family dynamics and conflicting narratives, and what it meant to seek connection again as an adult and as a parent. This episode explores how love can coexist with grief, how fear can influence our choices, and what it means to choose safety without losing compassion.
    There are no neat conclusions here—only honesty, reflection, and the ongoing work of learning to trust one’s own voice.
