Your first example of how to connect, love, and nurture is provided by your parents. But what happens if your family doesn't fit the idyllic TV show definition of a family? In this episode, I speak with Obio Jones. Obio is an influencer, coach + LGBTQ advocate. His success in helping people is directly linked to not feeling loved or supported by the first woman in his life: his mother. Looking back, he sees that she wasn't the mother he wanted, but she WAS the mother he got.

I invite you to join our conversation as Obio and I discuss:

• Affection
• Reaffirming Language
• Feeling Unworthy
• Mother Wound
• Emotions
• Relationships
• Perfectionism
• Defensive Language
• Judging Others
• Awareness
• Family Dynamics
• Letting Go
