In this deeply moving episode, Tamika Bruce opens up about the impact of parental incarceration—not just on the parent, but on the children left behind.

After serving 10 years and enduring 7 years without seeing her kids, Tamika returned home to face a new reality: her children were intelligent and capable—but struggling in ways she didn’t expect.

This conversation unpacks:
• The emotional toll of separation
• The overlooked trauma children carry
• The challenges of rebuilding trust and connection
• What true reintegration really looks like

Now a community advocate focused on reentry for families, Tamika is turning her pain into purpose—bringing awareness to stories that often go unheard.

This episode is raw. It’s real. And it’s necessary.

Listen now and be part of the healing conversation.
