EP 109: Kindness Isn't Code for How to Give In
Tired of walking on eggshells around your grown children? In this episode, Kim explores the difference between true kindness and people-pleasing. She shares her personal journey from being a controlling "boss mom" to a people-pleasing doormat, and how she found the middle ground of confident kindness.
Discover why saying "no" with love is actually more caring than always saying "yes," and learn how to set boundaries that strengthen rather than strain your relationships with adult children. Kim breaks down the biblical wisdom behind speaking truth with love and provides practical examples of how to respond when your grown kids test your boundaries.
If you're ready to stop earning approval and start being authentically you, this episode will give you the tools to love your adult children well while honoring yourself. Perfect for empty nest moms who want deeper, more respectful relationships with their grown kids.
