Ep. 11 Mom, I Didn’t Ask | Navigating Unwanted Advice with Love

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2609954/fan_mail/new] This week on Women in Bloom, we’re catching up with a few personal life updates before introducing something we’ve been so excited to share: the very first installment of our new advice series, Ask an Elder, Ask a Coach. Our first anonymous question comes from a listener who asks: How do you lovingly navigate a relationship with a mother who continues to offer opinions and advice that weren’t asked for? It’s a dynamic so many of us know well. How do you honor the wisdom of a parent while also honoring your own voice, boundaries, and decisions as an adult? In the second half of this episode, Eldress offers her perspective from a lifetime of lived experience, while Jasmine brings a coaching lens to the conversation. Together, they explore how love, communication, and healthy boundaries can coexist, even in complicated family relationships. Be sure to listen all the way through because the advice segment begins in the second half of the episode. And if you have a question you’d like us to discuss in a future Ask an Elder, Ask a Coach episode, you can submit it anonymously here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1e_mTGuRnv7e-5AeYs6HT-sQNRoi_7_xH0o5-L-fAMNg/viewform?pli=1&pli=1&edit_requested=true [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1e_mTGuRnv7e-5AeYs6HT-sQNRoi_7_xH0o5-L-fAMNg/viewform?pli=1&pli=1&edit_requested=true] Life comes at you fast, and to that we say: Bloom anyway.
