    S1 E1 - Parents' advise to young adults undergoing heartbreak

    In this episode Joy and Abbie will discuss how parents can navigate through their young adult's heartbreak from the perspective of immigrant Gen X parents. The episode will talk about how parents can lovingly support an adult child going through heartbreak—not by fixing the situation, but by listening, being present, and giving space to heal. They reflect on their own past heartbreaks, the added challenge of social media today, and the quiet power of family time, comfort food, and reassurance that their child is still whole and deeply loved.
