Broken Trust and Fallout from Family Secrets
Listen now
Description
Betrayal, isolation, anger, and dismissal plague Carly, mother of three children, after discovering the family secret everyone else was in on but her. At 39, Carly accidentally learned that her father was not her biological father. Her mother’s attempts to get Carly to get over it and move on, along with her refusal to get the help she needs, leave Carly hanging off the cliff feeling uncared for and alone. Trust has been decimated. Their relationship, once thought to be close, is in peril. How do everyone’s roles readjust? How does Carly keep her children’s beloved grandmother in the picture when forgiveness is not in the cards? How do you bring in a new grandfather the children never knew? How does Carly find what she needs?
