This was like you were in our marriage of 22 years. My husband beaten and emotionally abused by his Dad until 12. Me sexually abused by my Gynaecologist and Obstetrician Dad from 5 and his pack of friends until I was 18. Plus his physical and emotional abuse. Plus my Mum’s neglect and emotional abuse from birth. I will suggest my beautiful Robbie holds my face and looks into my eyes and tells me I am safe in my Emotional Flashbacks. You have no idea how much this suggestion will help. He has been hugging me, but it triggers me even more. 💜 Jayne 🌈🦋🪽🪽🙏🌼🫶

Thank you, thank you, merci beaucoup for this woman sharing her story, and for you, Esther, for reflecting with her on her journey to reclaim herself. She was telling my story. I am sure her Moose-self will attract powerful, nurturing relationships.

Vielen Dank für diese großartige Aufarbeitung dieses wichtigen Themas. Und danke auch, für die priorisoeting der Opferperspektive, die in solchen Fällen oft hinten anstehen.

Hi Esther, in this episode or the edits version we listened to, it felt like there wasn‘t much opportunity for the women to talk and reach that discovery through the conversation and unravelling it would have been good to hear her make that connecting moment, it would have helped me the listener with the step by step rather than the jump connection followed by the explanation....I feel the gap in the discovery ... I hope another episode touches on the same theme at a slower pace.

I felt Esther's comments were much more vague, as if she wanted to challenge the women more, not judge but challenge the way she normally dies but worried that this would come across as judgemental. Just an impression I got...

It was clear in I Can't Give You A Child the woman had unexplored grief that had to be dealt with before any decisions about children could be discussed but I was curious about how seemingly quickly Esther brushed away what seem like real concerns about actually wanting a child at this point in life, age and energy. Since I know Esther is open to someone not wanting to have children I wondered if there was something I missed even beyond her grief of miscarriage which can be felt regardless.

It was difficult to listen to the pain of the parents in this episode. I was on the other side. I'm also a South Korean adoptee, now 35 years old, and I struggled with the same issues. It's taken years, but I've rebuilt my relationship with my mother. Never give up, never stop loving.
