The Brain Scrub & Beyond Burnout
Parental Alienation: Are you the target? Now what? Sadly, by the time you learn about this form of emotional child abuse, it may be too late. My hope for you is one day, your child will need you more than ever based on what their lived experience has been.
If you are suffering, desperate, confused, depressed and feeling of rejected, you are not alone. Formerly this podcast was ’The Brain Scrub’. I will continue to focus on mental health and share how I am coping during these unpredictable times by focusing on self-care, improvement and building community.
My goal is to support you in living your best life by sharing what I have done during my journey as an alienated parent.
This podcast explains my path to living a more authentic life by taking a courageous look at my self and focusing on what I can control, me.
I am not an expert and the tools and techniques I share are based on my research, practice and ideas. For mental or physical health challenges, please seek the advice of a qualified practitioner. Absolutely seek professional help to deal with trauma, depression, personality disorders, etc. Support is out there - get it.
