Parenting IRL: A Mother's Day Special

In this Mother’s Day episode of Therapy in the Open, Holly shares (with permission) an unfiltered conversation with her 13-year-old daughter. What was supposed to be a mother-daughter meditation quickly derails into something far more honest: a chaotic, humorous, and painfully real glimpse into everyday parenting.

A hyper teenager battling allergies, school drama, heated opinions, and a mother navigating the urge to correct, guide, and connect. Real names have been bleeped out, but the imperfection, love, and heavy sighing are all intact.

This is motherhood: messy, meaningful, and not at all what you had planned.

Enjoy.
