The hardest part about healing is accepting the fact that your parents will never own up to their faults that led to your trauma.

[@Youknowwhat101]

PERIOD

Hit it on the nail and it’s like you have to move on beyond that with every strength from wherever!!!! This comment is the truth!!!!! Mines traumatized me at 12 because somehow she was traumatized in her childhood, now my mother is sick with Alzheimer’s and Dementia and I’m In therapy!

I've come to terms with it and moved forward. I no longer require their confession, and I've found peace in that acceptance. Now, I live my life for myself, establishing personal boundaries, and it feels amazing.❤

This is absolutely true. It's worse when you are repeatedly subjected to seeing the mother who doesn't love you shower your sibling with love and attention. It proves she has the capacity to love, she just doesn't love you. It's hard to process that as a child and not be impacted. For the longest time, my self-esteem was so low.

This!! And even worse with your mother because you will always feel a loyalty towards her no matter how much you are hurting. So difficult

[@beautifulsky9575]

​@@3rinityivysage292I understand this so well. My mother left me with my father because she was on drugs. Till this day I'm 49 years old and she won't talk about the past. We stay on the surface of everything. She always says I know I was messed up but she never go deeper.thr effects of her being messed up and what it did to me. She still pushes me away until this day. We talk on the phone but she won't let me get so close to her because I feel like being around me it's her guilt. But she always provides financially that her way is being there for me. But as a other it made me learn to stand it what I do my mistakes and know I still operate of of trauma myself but I'm careful with it.

[@jessicaa.7743]

What’s helped me accept my moms choices was understanding that her behaviors/choices were all learned from her mother. It’s a chain/generational curse. They didn’t know any better.

[@MindBodyCole]

Yessss, I learned that 3 months before my mom passed now I’m trying to forgive myself for judging. 😢

[@PrettyPowerfulAndPersevering]

Yes they do. Once she became an adult, she became responsible for her healing…versus continuing w the curse.

[@MmmSoulCare]

It’s fair to say that you can know better and not have or be aware of the tools to do better. Accountability can live with grace. ❤

And look at her as a women who was hurting too, and have compassion for her… unfortunately while she was living I couldn’t see it because “I needed my mother too” it wasn’t until she past that I was able to see it on this way!

This was so good! Years ago, I made the choice to forgive my mother for not being who I thought she should be. My mother was a teen mom and had three children by the age of 22 years old. I looked at her one day and realized that she did the best she could, and she was strict on me and my sisters because she didn’t want what happened to her to happen to us. And although she didn’t love me like I thought she should or treat us the way I thought she should, people just don’t have it and you can’t give what you don’t have! I always say that my mother taught me so much about parenting and what not to do. I just knew that I wanted to be a different parent and my sons and I have a great relationship, but had I not gone through the childhood I went through, it may have been different. I have so much respect for my mother now, because she raised all three of us to be strong, independent, hard-working women, and I know after having children of my own, how hard that is. She was young and nobody taught her how to be a parent. I don’t know that I could have done the job (at her age with three children) that she did with me and my sisters, so, there is nothing but reverence, respect, forgiveness, understanding and more importantly healing now! 🥰. She’s my queen! 👸🏽 ❤

I’ve had to mourn the relationship that I wanted to have with my mother. I realized she showed up as only the person she could be. Therapy has helped me work though my desire to have a loving nurturing relationship with my mother and let go of the fairytale. I recognize my mom has experienced her own trauma from not being raised by my grandmother and abuse she suffered from her grandmother who raised her. The pain she felt by not being raised by her mother but my grandmother raising my uncle, realizing the resentment from that and how it still plagues her til this day. I strive to be a better mother to my children, accept accountability and make apologies for when I fell short. I do everything for them and my granddaughter. Thank you B and thank you Dr for having these real conversations. Thank you for being firm when telling her to sit in it and not avoid or run from her emotions💜🦋💜

We only set ourselves up for failure when we put too much grace on people who NEVER delivered. It's like waiting for a package that you ordered but that's delayed. The anticipation destroys the joy of receiving something that just may not be delivered when you EXPECT it. Some people are just not worthy of continuously being given grace. As those are the type who will continue to abuse you! God gives us all grace up unto a certain degree and we should all operate the same way ❤ So, acceptance of what is vs what you want is key!

Hi luv. I understand how u feel. May I ask a question? Who does your unforgiveness towards your mother hurt the most?

[@chrissyh3270]

You can forgive her to free yourself but you don't have to reconcile with her.

[@omnib.135]

​@@jannellevans3598it doesn't hurt the "victim" when you choose peace over insanity. See, that's the lie some people believe. Which is forgiveness is for you and not the other person. Simply because you can forgive a person yet it doesn't mean that they won't intentionally be a repeat offender. Even father God has a cut off period with his grace shown. So, we should all act accordingly to the level of respect that is given no matter who it comes from. And sometimes in order for people to get the picture you have to leave them where their standing and most times that's ALONE 😂 ❤

[@jannellevans3598]

@omnib.135 I'm not implying that she has to be back in her presence and that she shouldn't leave them standing alone. U can truly forgive someone and not ever physically deal with them again but from her comment I didn't hear that she had forgiven her mom

[@omnib.135]

@@jannellevans3598 And that's ok too if she hasn't. From my own personal experience forgiveness is not an ingredient for healing. Because you will still have unresolved feelings towards set person. Esp if there is no progress in your relationship. Forgiveness is for those who are willing to be accountable and are willing to make a change. Those who aren't willing to make amends through their actions should be left alone. And maybe that's why she has not forgiven her mother because it's not going to change the connection between the two. As she probably realized the connection has always been one sided based around the mothers needs and not hers as the child. Most mother/father wounds stem from NPD parents who are codependent of their children and only look at their children as badges of honor. Never seeing their off spring as separate from them. Thinking that if they survived abuse then their children can as well. Which isn't true. But then again NPD personality have hard times deciphering what's true and isn't.

I’m so happy to see Dr.Bryant on so many different platforms, I was first introduced to her via teen mom and I thought she was just so amazing during their sessions. Wish I could afford her 😩

[@vonaspov]

Immediately clicked because the mother wounds run deep with a lot of women I know and even within self. These conversations are so needed 🤍

[@Yonela_Toko]

😭😭

[@MaryBieber7]

This is what I’ve been waiting for from B. The story behind the story. TRUE authenticity and vulnerability. As she leans into this, she’ll see God really use her testimony.

[@nakeishahairston6663]

Same!

[@desandrasimmons4545]

JESUS!!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF HOW MUCH THIS WAS NEEDED!!! I couldn't send this to my daughter soon enough. God knew just how much we needed this message and guidance. I wish you could have a weekly podcast on this subject matter to help us more. Our therapist doesn't come close to what you achieved in 1 hour. Bless you both!

This makes me so grateful for my mom. Not like I wasn’t before but this made me extra super grateful. She’s loves me unconditionally & has always been my advocate.

[@vanessagethers1769]

This was definitely meant for me to hear a mothers trauma becomes a daughters wound

[@ninaerastus5341]

"I get triggered when I go home" girl me too... this episode hit me so deep, so so deep... I cried with you while I was watching... I pray we can heal together from this fr.❤ thank you for this. I'm deeply grateful❤

The timing of this is so divine. I haven’t seen my dad since my brother Nicks funeral in 2018 and before that in 2009. I just got back from seeing him because he had an emergency triple bypass surgery and there was a chance he wouldn’t make it. I hold on to so much of my art and my expression because it reveals the truth about me and them. That was a powerful moment for me. Thank you so much Simone for your vulnerability and Dr. Bryant for your wisdom.

Acceptance is a huge word. Parents are portals faced with the same challenges we face they aren’t superheroes. Forgive them for their flaws and shortcomings and excel beyond the dysfunction.

[@reneelynn3379]

A master manifester. You prayed for what happened in this episode. God heard you the top of the episode and they delivered. When you said "Idk, help me," that made me respect you even more. Something I notice in all your episodes is when you need better understanding you always ask for help or ask "what does that mean" and I truly admire that you show up for yourself in that way. You won't ever allow your pride to keep you from continuously developing and I love that.

[@indi5]

I’m glad B without hesitation said that she was proud of herself!!

[@shemekaadams1457]

You're changing lives. I'm 51, and we are the same little girl. I don't need to know the backstory to know it, and you just changed my life. Dr.Bryant is anointed and wise. Thank you both. You anointed too B.

That’s literally THE DEFINITION of bravery. Being afraid and doing it ANYWAY!

[@GurpLove]

Yeah my Dad raised me too but was emotionally unavailable so I felt abandoned,..it sucks on both ends. But I prayed to Jesus to heal the fragments of my soul on not growing up without my Mom it’s my testimony not my identity.

Godspeed healing! Although… this is not my testimony, we all have broken fragments that we have to Elmer’s glue back together and keep going and I too often use that statement … “not my identity; just my testimony!”

Same as my story but i grew with my narcissistic mom

[@alexiaboatwright]

Omg B you have to tell your story. I have been suffering with my relationship with my mom and it’s gotten better and I still haven’t healed from my relationship with her as a child. I feel so bad for feeling how I feel. I want to heal and I suffer from people pleasing and I took so many pages of notes from this video so I can start my healing journey. I felt when you said “God why me? I have a sister, why me?” Because I wish someone can handle this and not me. I feel for you 10000% because I can deeply relate to what you’ve expressed so far. I didn’t know I was also angry as my father for not saving me from everything, He couldn’t ! Please set yourself free so I can learn from your journey and heal with you ❤

My mom died last year and it was the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through in my entire life so I know exactly how it feels to never have that relationship with my mom. She wasn’t around when she was alive either so it was extremely difficult I’m crying right along with you b ❤😢

[@vanessaa2631]

This was amazing. Coming from a divorced parent home I too at 30+ have realized that I am a people pleaser that stems back from childhood. It is a struggle and I def found some gems to use on my healing, unlearning journey and putting myself first

[@allymcbealx]

I don’t even have the words soo much of this resonates. So many takeaways and just reassurance Dr. Bryant say what I’ve thought myself lets me know I’m learning and healing and on the right path. I was told by my mother I was controlling my sister but she infantilized her and made me put on a cape even when I was afraid or was in need. And we’re only a year apart. All I knew was protecting them and regulating their emotions at my expense. When I learned about boundaries and told them i didn’t want to be involved in their personal relationships I became the villain. They wanted me to keep showing up as the people pleaser w/ the cape. I wasn’t willing to do that so I chose to walk away. It’s been two years now.

[@TeiZhanMcfall-ve5jn]

My mother left me with my grandmother. And i haven’t seen my mom since 2015. But i do call her. But thank you Dr Bryant 🥹🥹🥹🙏🏿

The vulnerability and healing is UNMATCHED here between you too!! Thank you Dr. Bryant for being a pillar and B.Simone for creating the space!! ❤

[@empressgeorgena311]

The hardest part is accepting the apologies you’ll never receive…. Closure without clarity. Then, choosing to keep a clean heart, despite all that disappointment. You are loved, Simone. 💖

[@brwnskngem_1725]

Whew! This is nothing but truth. The hardest part for me is hearing my mother call me out my name and to never be good enough. Nothing but GOD and my strong faith has brought me this far in my life. So proud of the woman I am at 47 years young! It’s been a hell of a journey!

[@DejaAliyyah]

Whewww that “most ppl stay in the dark” hit me so deep because I enjoy being in the dark for all those reasons 😢😢

[@Mrș_Caș3y]

John 3:19-21 King James Version 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. I realized that about myself as well. I was never depressed, I just really enjoyed being in sadness and the dark because I can continue to do my dirt without any rebuke. It's sickening. Thank God I came back to Jesus. He has healed me from so much mess and is still healing me.

[@cnique2000]

This hit me so hard because I’ve always found comfort in being in the dark. I’ve always found comfort in avoiding the truth in my life. I’ve been scared to go into the light. I’ve been scared to have those real conversations with my mom, even the conversations me and my sister should have when it relates to her, and how she created trauma in our childhood. Staying in the dark allows me to avoid those hard conversations. The dark represents to me, avoidance and denial and not continuing to break my own heart. Even long after my mom broke my heart so many times in our childhood and continues to do so in me and my sister‘s adulthood. This podcast has me wanting to finally face the truth and walk into the light.

[@Mrș_Caș3y]

@cnique2000 trust in Jesus. Trust that He'll guide you through the fire and will be there to comfort you when it gets really hard. Let Him walk before you, and He will make sure you come through. Cling to Him. He didn't promise us an easy life, but He did promise to never leave us. All you have to do is trust in Him. I'm praying for you sis 🙏🏾 💜 Hebrews 13:5: "For he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee".

[@yahairamelendez7208]

This right here 😢😢🤧 brought me flashback i had a similar experience with my parents and my siblings basically i was looked at like the black sheep . I went through alot of trauma abuse from verbal , mentally ,physically sexual assault since a child . Even raise myself at 18 cause my mother didn't want to deal with me cause she wanted to have a new men in her life who was abusive to her and yet blame me for her choice . Its been 2 year in my healing journey its not easy but you have to be really strong and have faith that you are going to surpass this and keep all toxic people , places and things away from you and go within . To all woman and men that gone through traumas we got this , most high father will always shine the light and show you the way stay strong and have faith blessings to all ❤❤ . B simone queen im glad you doing this its a big step you got this sister 🙏💐💖🕊 stay strong i love you .
