Kids don’t have to be bad, have bad parents, or live in bad homes to suffer mental health breakdowns, addiction, or incarceration. Everything can change instantly. If it has happened to your family, you know the feeling of losing control and the emotional chaos that comes with it. Lorri Britt, the author of My Heart Behind Bars, said that she felt shame, guilt, and loneliness when her two boys went to prison. She felt judged and ostracized. In this episode, she shares the raw reactions she experienced before, during, and after her kids’ incarceration. Listeners with similar heartbreak will find help and comfort in this conversation, knowing they are not alone. Tune in to this inspiring episode of a mother’s journey through grief, love, and forgiveness.
