    Encore: I Am Right and You Are Wrong—Where the HuffPost Series Began

    Before releasing our new two-part series examining HuffPost’s coverage of family estrangement, we are returning to Andrea Tate's HuffPost episode that started it all.  This is one of our earliest and most-listened-to episodes. It is passionate, personal, and presented exactly as it originally aired.   The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.

    I Thought Our Relationship Would Be Enough: Carolyn’s Story

    For the first time on All Things TDS Podcast, a parent joins me to tell her estrangement story in her own words. Carolyn shares how a relationship that was once incredibly close changed over time, how what she believed would be a short break in communication became more than five years of estrangement, and what she has learned along the way. This is a conversation about accountability, grief, acceptance, support, and hope.   The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.

    Radical Woke Righteousness: When Agreement Becomes the Only Acceptance Response

    In this episode, Dr. Traci examines the patterns that turn moral certainty into superiority, disagreement into a character defect, contempt into justified mistreatment, and personal conviction into self-appointed authority over someone else. The Clancy trial is one public example. The same patterns can enter families when communication becomes a demand for agreement and when refusing to accept another person’s interpretation comes with imposed consequences. What happens to communication, relationships, and independent judgment when agreement becomes the only acceptable response? These are the sources directly supporting the factual material in the current episode. Our discussion of Radical Woke Righteousness, contempt, boundaries, communication, and estrangement is our analysis, not material taken from an outside source.   Sources CBS Saturday Morning — Paula Devlin discusses what she believed the case could change.

    Radical Woke Righteousness When Compassion Becomes Certainty

    In this episode, Dr. Traci examines the Radical Woke Righteousness surrounding the Clancy case: how compassion became certainty, how compassion depended on who needed it, and how a radical woke worldview transformed a criminal trial into a feminist cause. This episode does not deny the seriousness of postpartum psychosis. It confronts what happened when women claiming to advocate for mental health manipulated evidence, spread conspiracy theories, ignored the facts, and condemned anyone who challenged their preferred conclusion.

    How Estrangement Happens: A Three-Part Series

    This is Part 3 of a three-part series on family estrangement. In this episode, we examine abuse, mental illness, and substance abuse and the role they can play in estrangement. These issues can affect either the parent or the adult child, and when children are involved, the responsibility of the other parent to protect them also matters. Not every family experiences these issues in the same way, and not every estrangement has the same outcome. This episode is about looking at what happened, acknowledging the harm, and placing responsibility where it belongs.   The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.

    How Estrangement Happens: A Three-Part Series

    This episode is Part 2 of a three part series, we examine the parent’s side of a relationship moving toward estrangement.  We discuss what parents can take responsibility for without taking responsibility for choices that were not theirs. This episode is about accountability, perspective, and learning to hold two truths at once: a parent can recognize where they contributed to the breakdown and still acknowledge the pain, loss, and consequences they experienced along the way.   The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.

    How Estrangement Happens: A Three-Part Series

    This episode is Part 1 of a three-part series examining estrangement between parents and adult children. Estrangement is often explained by focusing on what a parent did. This episode asks a different question: How did estrangement become the response you were willing to choose? This is not about deciding whether estrangement is always right or wrong. It is about examining the pathway to that decision with greater honesty, complexity, and personal responsibility. Because understanding estrangement requires more than explaining what someone else did. It also requires understanding how you arrived at the choice you made.   The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.

    You Know Exactly What You Did: Do They?

    When an estranged parent says, I don’t know what happened, adult children often respond with, you know exactly what you did. This episode challenges that assumption. A parent can know there were problems, hurt feelings, boundaries, disagreements, and requests for change, and still not understand how those problems became the end of the relationship. Dr. Traci examines the difference between knowing what happened and understanding why it led to estrangement. She also explores how boundaries can become rigid conditions, why relationships should not all be treated the same, how empathy can become a one-way expectation, and why you should have known is not the same as actually knowing.   Follow us on Facebook and Instagram at All Things TDS Podcast.    The All Things TDS Podcast is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.  This podcast is not therapy, not mental health treatment, and not individualized advice.
