Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope.Why has the image of ‘the black sheep’ lasted so long? It is easier to identify that family member as the one who ‘doesn’t fit in’ or ‘doesn’t quite belong.’ Separation is the key. Other family members would rather let the black sheep get on with their own life than jeopardise their designated place in the flock. Having said that,

How do some people manage not just to survive but to thrive? What tools do they have in their tool box? That is one HUGE philosophical question.

Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope.NO CONTACT must be one of the most complex topics, especially when referring to parental relationships. When I made the decision to go NO CONTACT, it was the first time in my life that I was telling my mother how things were going to be.

Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope.Forgiveness is hard to do, especially as the child of a narcissist. I was expected to forgive, yet the adult in the relationship could do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted. It didn’t make sense. It wasn’t fair. So, I made the decision…a huge decision. I didn’t need to forgive them. Instead, I began to forgive myself.

Each fortnightly episode is crammed full of honesty, humour and hope. “Parents do their best.” I have heard that statement all of my life. I don’t agree.
