Four Years No Contact: A Mother-Daughter Reconciliation Story In this episode, we dive deep into the powerful and often complex world of mother-daughter relationships with bestselling authors Leslie and Lindsay Glass.

They discuss their journey from "killing people" in mystery novels to helping families heal through their Mother-Daughter Relationship Makeover series and their platform, Reach Out Recovery.
