Surviving Roots: A Crash Course in Turning Pain into Potential – Détails, épisodes et analyse

20 minutes. One microphone. And the truth I’ve never shared—until now.

In this week’s solo episode of Surviving Roots, I’m speaking words out loud that I’ve only ever carried in silence.

The story of estrangement from my mother.
The text I never thought I’d get.
The moment I realized rejection wasn’t about me—it was the door to peace.

When a parent can’t love you… it can either bury you or build you. This is the episode that’s still healing me as I speak it.
