A couple of days ago my phone rang. My cousin — an amazing human, a very important person in my life — and I could tell by her voice something was off. Then came the words that always come right before a bomb drops: "I'm always hesitant to tell you these things because I don't want it to be hurtful."
My whole body was on fire before she'd even said it.
This is the episode where I'm real to the bone. The woman who felt like a second mother when I was growing up. The fallout that happened after my divorce. What it feels like when family love turns out to have terms and conditions — and what someone who helped raise me actually thinks about me and this podcast.
It's about truth, grief, family judgment, and what happens when someone attacks the packaging because they cannot attack the truth inside it.
