Thanks for sharing your journey and your lessons from it. <3 I love how you can distill both the inspirational and practical bits so clearly. The part about "I have known my mom for 30 years and been so wrong about her and her intentions for me on so many counts" resonates a lot.
Anyone who's seriously considering Johnson's generous offer to help you with your parental relationships, do it!
I've been working with Johnson for the last 1.5 years on my difficult relationship with my mom and grandma, and this Christmas was the first time in the last 30 years or so, where I actually enjoyed the family celebration.
I don't have as much time to dedicate to this process as Johnson did in his own, since I work full-time. So my progress is much slower. But I am amazed at how much I could accomplish while continuing my normal work and personal life. And the spilllover effects into the rest of my life are amazing. Repairing our parental relationships is probably the deepest and hardest personal and relational growth work we can do. And the most important.
