## Resource

When the relationship with your son or daughter-in-law is strained, the ripple effects can touch every corner of your heart. Suddenly, the connection with your child feels fragile, your role as a mom feels uncertain, and even time with your grandkids can feel out of reach. In this powerful, hope-filled conversation, Counselor Kathy Cunningham joins me to unpack what really happens when these relationships break down, and how healing is absolutely possible. Kathy offers practical tools, biblical wisdom, and deep compassion as she guides us through the very first step a mom should take when reconciliation feels impossible.
