The Real Reason They Stopped Talking to You

If you've ever wondered how a family goes from talking every week to not talking at all, this conversation is for you.

Matthias Barker and I unpack why estrangement rarely happens because of one big moment—it usually comes after years of small moments that were never addressed. We talk about what parents often miss, what adult children wish their parents understood, and why the fastest way to push someone further away is to defend your intentions instead of trying to understand their experience.
