#131: Family Felt Stressful, Tense, & Unstable | Jordana

Restored: Helping Children of Divorce

After 24 years of marriage, Jordana’s parents divorced. Overall, her experience of family felt tense, stressful, and unstable. Once she learned of her parents’ divorce, she went into problem-solver mode, taking on the role of mother for her siblings.

In this episode, you’ll hear us discuss all of that, plus:

• How filling a parent role isn’t ideal, but sometimes necessary for a season, and how to handle the guilt about moving forward in your life.
• Her struggles with communicating in relationships and with anxiety overall
• Why it’s so helpful to put your feelings into words, even though it seems too simple to help
