Do your emotions about your adult child relationships feel productive when they're actually keeping you trapped? In this vulnerable episode, Kim reveals the five "sneaky indulging emotions" that masquerade as motherly concern but function like emotional quicksand.
Through personal stories and client experiences, you'll discover how doubt, overwhelm, confusion, worry, and self-pity create the illusion of progress while keeping you stuck in painful cycles. Kim explains why we unconsciously choose these emotions (hint: they protect us from deeper truths) and shares practical tools to break free from each pattern.
This isn't about dismissing your feelings or pretending everything is fine. It's about learning the difference between processing emotions and indulging in them. You'll walk away with specific techniques like the "doubt timer," "snapshot thinking," and the "worry window" to help you channel your emotional energy toward healing instead of spinning.
