Listen "A Light In The Dark; Answering Your Questions"
Episode Synopsis
🎙️ We’re closing out the last episode of a 3-part series on the topic of adult children of sex addicts featuring Dr. Kenneth M. Adams Ph.D., CSAT-S, and author of the new book, A Light in the Dark: The Hidden Legacy of Adult Children of Sex Addicts.
This week, we respond to listener questions such as:
“Do I need to hide my pain from my kids?”
“When is it too late to repair your relationship with your children?”
“How can I work through the guilt and shame that come from repairing damaged relationships?”
Amie and Alana are excited about the questions this book has brought up for you, and they encourage you to keep asking questions as you heal. Your path to healing will be filled with pain and fear, but as you do this difficult work, there is healing, beauty, strength, and post-traumatic growth to be found along the way.
Amie and Alana referenced Vicki Tidwell Palmer’s Bill of Rights in this episode. You can find the full list here.
