Description

In a deeply vulnerable conversation with therapist and KC Davis, author of Who Deserves Your Love, Chrissy opens up about the emotional complexity of her relationship with her mom: the years of silence, the heartbreaking attempts to reconnect, and the weight of carrying unmet needs into adulthood. It's not about blame—it’s about honesty, grief, and the quiet hope that healing might still be possible.

Together, Chrissy and KC explore what it means to love someone who can’t always love you back the way you need - and how to stop losing yourself in the process. 

Key Takeaways

- How to tell the difference between a hard relationship and an unsafe one

- What real boundaries look like—and why they’re not about control

- Why “being the good daughter” sometimes means betraying yourself

- How to grieve the parent you wish you had while still showing up for the one you do

- Simple tools to regulate your nervous system in the middle of emotional overwhelm
