Eps 130 - How to recover and rebuild a healthy parent-child relationship
Description
In this episode of The Re-Mind Podcast, Dr Ashleigh Moreland and David Masterton continue the conversation on parenting, identity, and generational healing. After exploring the dangers of making your child the center of your universe in the last episode, this week they dive into how to recover and rebuild a healthy parent-child relationship—one rooted in balance, modeling, and mutual respect.
Ash and Dave unpack what it means to reclaim your identity, nurture your marriage, and model healthy selfhood for your kids—without guilt or shame. This episode is both a guide for parents and an invitation to self-compassion as you re-learn what it means to be whole.
In this episode:
How to begin reclaiming your identity after losing yourself in parenting
Why modeling joy, passion, and purpose teaches kids more than words ever could
The role of hobbies, friendships, and partnership in healthy family systems
How over-sacrifice in parenting creates resentment and disconnection
Why self-care and individuality are gifts to your children, not threats
The importance of compassion for parents who are also healing their own upbringing
Ash and Dave remind us that healing isn’t about blame—it’s about rewriting the playbook our children will inherit.
Reflection prompts:
What brings you joy outside of your roles?
How might your children benefit from seeing you pursue your own passions?
If your child mirrored your current relationship or self-worth, would you feel proud?
