  • And i think what i didn't even realize i was on the other side
  • 00:23:50.203 --> 00:23:53.039
  • Realize i was on the other side is the way my mom was
  • 00:23:53.172 --> 00:23:53.806
  • Is the way my mom was constantly fueling insecurities
  • 00:23:53.940 --> 00:23:56.275
  • Constantly fueling insecurities where you need a parent who's
  • 00:23:56.409 --> 00:23:57.009
  • Where you need a parent who's telling you that your safe
  • 00:23:57.143 --> 00:24:07.353

  • >> and so if if the grown ups around us are struggling with
  • 00:24:12.792 --> 00:24:15.261
  • Around us are struggling with it really kind of leaves us
  • 00:24:15.394 --> 00:24:16.028

  • Hanging. what was the turning point you
  • 00:24:16.496 --> 00:24:19.499
  • What was the turning point you in all of this?
  • 00:24:19.632 --> 00:24:19.966
  • In all of this? honestly, for me i think it
  • 00:24:20.099 --> 00:24:20.800
  • Honestly, for me i think it took leaving for college and
  • 00:24:20.933 --> 00:24:22.835
  • Took leaving for college and when i got to be about 1920
  • 00:24:22.969 --> 00:24:25.605
  • When i got to be about 1920 because i think at that point
  • 00:24:25.738 --> 00:24:26.339
  • Because i think at that point you get to an age where you
  • 00:24:26.472 --> 00:24:27.240
  • You get to an age where you start to look around at other
  • 00:24:27.373 --> 00:24:30.109
  • Start to look around at other people's families and go oh,
  • 00:24:30.243 --> 00:24:30.810
  • People's families and go oh, this different than what i grew
  • 00:24:30.943 --> 00:24:33.212

  • 00:24:36.649 --> 00:24:37.250
  • My faith became real for me. i got involved in a bible study
  • 00:24:37.383 --> 00:24:40.453
  • I got involved in a bible study at texas a&m called breakaway
  • 00:24:40.586 --> 00:24:41.154
  • At texas a&m called breakaway and it changed my life and.
  • 00:24:41.287 --> 00:24:44.657
  • And it changed my life and. all of a sudden i began to see
  • 00:24:44.791 --> 00:24:45.558
  • All of a sudden i began to see myself through the lens that
  • 00:24:45.691 --> 00:24:46.259
  • Myself through the lens that god saw me through and i
  • 00:24:46.392 --> 00:24:47.927
  • God saw me through and i realized that i wasn't broken
  • 00:24:48.060 --> 00:24:48.661
  • Realized that i wasn't broken beyond repair and that i could
  • 00:24:48.795 --> 00:24:52.064
  • Beyond repair and that i could be redeemed and that was just
  • 00:24:52.198 --> 00:24:52.799
  • Be redeemed and that was just not anything that i'd ever been
  • 00:24:52.932 --> 00:24:55.034
  • Not anything that i'd ever been able to process before.
  • 00:24:55.168 --> 00:24:55.635
  • Able to process before. >> was there shame and guilt in

  • 00:24:56.669 --> 00:24:59.438
  • This for you as a person? oh, there was so much shame and
  • 00:24:59.572 --> 00:25:00.206
  • Oh, there was so much shame and guilt.
  • 00:25:00.339 --> 00:25:00.506
  • Guilt. i think that's part of it.
  • 00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:03.176
  • I think that's part of it. you know, at one point i say i
  • 00:25:03.309 --> 00:25:04.043
  • You know, at one point i say i think i walked down an aisle at
  • 00:25:04.177 --> 00:25:07.213
  • Think i walked down an aisle at churches so many times that i
  • 00:25:07.346 --> 00:25:07.947
  • Churches so many times that i said billy graham would have
  • 00:25:08.080 --> 00:25:08.648

  • But i just had so much that i couldn't get past because
  • 00:25:14.086 --> 00:25:14.587
  • Couldn't get past because nobody was giving me the
  • 00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:15.221
  • Nobody was giving me the freedom to move past that.
  • 00:25:15.354 --> 00:25:18.291
  • Freedom to move past that. >> talk about the road trip you

  • Really? and those words sit with you in
  • 00:26:23.489 --> 00:26:26.926
  • And those words sit with you in your heart and in your mind.
  • 00:26:27.059 --> 00:26:30.496
  • Your heart and in your mind. >> talk about that.
  • 00:26:30.630 --> 00:26:31.130
  • >> talk about that. i just it it settled on me in
  • 00:26:31.264 --> 00:26:34.233
  • I just it it settled on me in and there had been years,
  • 00:26:34.367 --> 00:26:34.901
  • And there had been years, terry, where i had thought do i
  • 00:26:35.034 --> 00:26:35.735
  • Terry, where i had thought do i walk away from this
  • 00:26:35.868 --> 00:26:38.471
  • Walk away from this relationship with my mom?
  • 00:26:38.604 --> 00:26:39.138
  • Relationship with my mom? do i do that?
  • 00:26:39.272 --> 00:26:39.572
  • Do i do that? but here's knew i can't do it
  • 00:26:39.705 --> 00:26:41.941
  • But here's knew i can't do it if i'm doing it out of
  • 00:26:42.074 --> 00:26:42.541
  • If i'm doing it out of bitterness and i can't do it
  • 00:26:42.675 --> 00:26:45.311
  • Bitterness and i can't do it doing that unforgiveness
  • 00:26:45.444 --> 00:26:45.945
  • Doing that unforgiveness because at that point i'm
  • 00:26:46.078 --> 00:26:46.612
  • Because at that point i'm perpetuating a cycle instead of
  • 00:26:46.746 --> 00:26:49.649
  • Perpetuating a cycle instead of creating a new healthy cycle
  • 00:26:49.782 --> 00:26:50.316
  • Creating a new healthy cycle which is what i was to do.
  • 00:26:50.449 --> 00:26:52.752
  • Which is what i was to do. but in that moment it felt like
  • 00:26:52.885 --> 00:26:53.719
  • But in that moment it felt like god clearly said to me and i
  • 00:26:53.853 --> 00:26:56.989
  • God clearly said to me and i think it was my mom speaking
  • 00:26:57.123 --> 00:26:57.723
  • Think it was my mom speaking those words if this is the end
  • 00:26:57.857 --> 00:26:58.491
  • Those words if this is the end of our relationship i felt
  • 00:26:58.624 --> 00:27:00.793
  • Of our relationship i felt god's permission to say you can
  • 00:27:00.927 --> 00:27:01.560
  • God's permission to say you can walk away.
  • 00:27:01.694 --> 00:27:04.797
  • Walk away. that was that was really the
  • 00:27:04.931 --> 00:27:05.498
  • That was that was really the beginning of being set free.
  • 00:27:05.631 --> 00:27:06.198
  • Beginning of being set free. big deal because of the guilt
  • 00:27:06.332 --> 00:27:08.734
  • Big deal because of the guilt and the shame involved in it.
  • 00:27:08.868 --> 00:27:09.468
  • And the shame involved in it. i mean you truly god is truly
  • 00:27:09.602 --> 00:27:12.672
  • I mean you truly god is truly setting you free to move on,
  • 00:27:12.805 --> 00:27:15.741
  • Setting you free to move on, move on without all of that.
  • 00:27:15.875 --> 00:27:16.442
  • Move on without all of that. >> so here you are now you're a
  • 00:27:16.575 --> 00:27:17.276
  • >> so here you are now you're a mom.
  • 00:27:17.410 --> 00:27:17.543
  • Mom. you've got a daughter of your
  • 00:27:17.677 --> 00:27:20.146
  • You've got a daughter of your own and i, i have to think with
  • 00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:20.980
  • Own and i, i have to think with all that god has taken and that
  • 00:27:21.113 --> 00:27:23.950
  • All that god has taken and that and all you write about in the
  • 00:27:24.083 --> 00:27:24.684
  • And all you write about in the book that the one thing you
  • 00:27:24.817 --> 00:27:25.351
  • Book that the one thing you want is for caroline experience
  • 00:27:25.484 --> 00:27:27.553
  • Want is for caroline experience what you did.
  • 00:27:27.687 --> 00:27:27.987
  • What you did. >> how did you deal with that
  • 00:27:28.120 --> 00:27:31.991
  • >> how did you deal with that just realizing you've got to
  • 00:27:32.124 --> 00:27:32.692
  • Just realizing you've got to break those cycles.
  • 00:27:32.825 --> 00:27:34.760
  • Break those cycles. the time i found out i was
  • 00:27:34.894 --> 00:27:35.628
  • The time i found out i was having a daughter i thought i
  • 00:27:35.761 --> 00:27:36.495
  • Having a daughter i thought i never want to make my daughter
  • 00:27:36.629 --> 00:27:39.432
  • Never want to make my daughter feel the way that i felt and i
  • 00:27:39.565 --> 00:27:40.232
  • Feel the way that i felt and i wanted her to her to know that
  • 00:27:40.366 --> 00:27:43.002
  • Wanted her to her to know that i was always on her side that
  • 00:27:43.135 --> 00:27:43.769
  • I was always on her side that she could be exactly who god
  • 00:27:43.903 --> 00:27:44.470
  • She could be exactly who god created her.
  • 00:27:44.603 --> 00:27:47.006
  • Created her. >> so that looked like it was
  • 00:27:47.139 --> 00:27:47.907
  • >> so that looked like it was happening.
  • 00:27:48.040 --> 00:27:48.274
  • Happening. you know, just smiled all those
  • 00:27:48.407 --> 00:27:50.643
  • You know, just smiled all those early years that was like
  • 00:27:50.776 --> 00:27:54.413
  • Early years that was like mother of the year my child's
  • 00:27:54.547 --> 00:27:55.147
  • Mother of the year my child's turning out well and then she
  • 00:27:55.281 --> 00:27:57.750
  • Turning out well and then she hits junior high and high
  • 00:27:57.883 --> 00:27:58.417
  • Hits junior high and high school and tell us about that.
  • 00:27:58.551 --> 00:28:01.854
  • School and tell us about that. >> you know the thing is is
  • 00:28:01.988 --> 00:28:02.755
  • >> you know the thing is is there's there's a main girl
  • 00:28:02.888 --> 00:28:03.489
  • There's there's a main girl epidemic and that that from the
  • 00:28:03.622 --> 00:28:05.725
  • Epidemic and that that from the beginning of time i feel like
  • 00:28:05.858 --> 00:28:08.995
  • Beginning of time i feel like it has just been this thing
  • 00:28:09.128 --> 00:28:09.695
  • It has just been this thing where especially high school
  • 00:28:09.829 --> 00:28:10.429
  • Where especially high school girls i think come at life
  • 00:28:10.563 --> 00:28:13.366
  • Girls i think come at life maybe from a scarcity mentality
  • 00:28:13.499 --> 00:28:14.133
  • Maybe from a scarcity mentality so one girl's success somehow
  • 00:28:14.266 --> 00:28:16.202
  • So one girl's success somehow means less success for them and
  • 00:28:16.335 --> 00:28:16.969
  • Means less success for them and they get caught in the drama
  • 00:28:17.103 --> 00:28:20.072
  • They get caught in the drama and i think a lot of times even
  • 00:28:20.206 --> 00:28:20.940
  • And i think a lot of times even what happens is they're
  • 00:28:21.073 --> 00:28:21.540
  • What happens is they're creating these kind of false
  • 00:28:21.674 --> 00:28:23.409
  • Creating these kind of false bonds if they have a common
  • 00:28:23.542 --> 00:28:24.143
  • Bonds if they have a common enemy the need is so great
  • 00:28:24.276 --> 00:28:27.446
  • Enemy the need is so great that's it and everybody's just
  • 00:28:27.580 --> 00:28:28.180
  • That's it and everybody's just wanting to fit in and so as
  • 00:28:28.314 --> 00:28:28.948
  • Wanting to fit in and so as long as you're not the target,
  • 00:28:29.081 --> 00:28:31.650
  • Long as you're not the target, you're okay, you're safe,
  • 00:28:31.784 --> 00:28:32.284
  • You're okay, you're safe, you're safe.
  • 00:28:32.418 --> 00:28:34.887
  • You're safe. and so when i watched caroline
  • 00:28:35.021 --> 00:28:35.821
  • And so when i watched caroline go through that, what i began
  • 00:28:35.955 --> 00:28:36.522
  • Go through that, what i began to realize all the things god
  • 00:28:36.655 --> 00:28:39.425
  • To realize all the things god still needed to heal in me to
  • 00:28:39.558 --> 00:28:40.393
  • Still needed to heal in me to not continue to perpetuate
  • 00:28:40.526 --> 00:28:42.395
  • Not continue to perpetuate toxic cycles so that she could
  • 00:28:42.528 --> 00:28:43.162
  • Toxic cycles so that she could deal with this healthy way and
  • 00:28:43.295 --> 00:28:46.432
  • Deal with this healthy way and to know who she was and who god
  • 00:28:46.565 --> 00:28:47.500
  • To know who she was and who god made to be.
  • 00:28:47.633 --> 00:28:49.435
  • Made to be. >> but melanie, that is such a
  • 00:28:49.568 --> 00:28:50.503
  • >> but melanie, that is such a that's an easy thing to say not
  • 00:28:50.636 --> 00:28:53.706
  • That's an easy thing to say not an easy thing to do because
  • 00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:54.407
  • An easy thing to do because you're working with healing and
  • 00:28:54.540 --> 00:28:57.309
  • You're working with healing and she is experiencing mean girls
  • 00:28:57.443 --> 00:28:58.077
  • She is experiencing mean girls but in the end you brought her
  • 00:28:58.210 --> 00:29:01.614
  • But in the end you brought her through to an independence and
  • 00:29:01.747 --> 00:29:02.381
  • Through to an independence and an understanding who she was
  • 00:29:02.515 --> 00:29:05.418
  • An understanding who she was that doesn't let her be defined
  • 00:29:05.551 --> 00:29:06.285
  • That doesn't let her be defined by people around her and boy
  • 00:29:06.419 --> 00:29:09.755
  • By people around her and boy isn't that what we'd all like
  • 00:29:09.889 --> 00:29:10.589
  • Isn't that what we'd all like to hand off to all of our kids
  • 00:29:10.723 --> 00:29:13.793
  • To hand off to all of our kids for people who might be going
  • 00:29:13.926 --> 00:29:14.627
  • For people who might be going through trauma impact, what's
  • 00:29:14.760 --> 00:29:20.533
  • Through trauma impact, what's your advice to them?
  • 00:29:20.666 --> 00:29:21.100
  • Your advice to them? i mean this is a rocky road.
  • 00:29:21.233 --> 00:29:21.834
  • I mean this is a rocky road. it's a really hard road to walk
  • 00:29:21.967 --> 00:29:24.804
  • It's a really hard road to walk and i think the best advice i
  • 00:29:24.937 --> 00:29:25.538
  • And i think the best advice i can give you is to know can
  • 00:29:25.671 --> 00:29:28.240
  • Can give you is to know can redeem anything and all it
  • 00:29:28.374 --> 00:29:28.908
  • Redeem anything and all it takes is one strong brave
  • 00:29:29.041 --> 00:29:31.444
  • Takes is one strong brave person to walk away and say
  • 00:29:31.577 --> 00:29:32.144
  • Person to walk away and say we're going to do things and to
  • 00:29:32.278 --> 00:29:35.481
  • We're going to do things and to start a new legacy.
  • 00:29:35.614 --> 00:29:36.015
  • Start a new legacy. and that can be so hard because
  • 00:29:36.148 --> 00:29:36.816
  • And that can be so hard because i think people want to tell you
  • 00:29:36.949 --> 00:29:39.752
  • I think people want to tell you but this is the way it's always
  • 00:29:39.885 --> 00:29:40.553
  • But this is the way it's always been but that's not the way it
  • 00:29:40.686 --> 00:29:41.287
  • Been but that's not the way it always has to be.
  • 00:29:41.420 --> 00:29:42.421
  • Always has to be. and when you look at what you
  • 00:29:42.555 --> 00:29:43.389
  • And when you look at what you can create going forward and
  • 00:29:43.522 --> 00:29:46.759
  • Can create going forward and what god can redeem, you want
  • 00:29:46.892 --> 00:29:47.493
  • What god can redeem, you want to walk out you have to to want
  • 00:29:47.626 --> 00:29:49.562
  • To walk out you have to to want the redemption more than you're
  • 00:29:49.695 --> 00:29:50.362
  • The redemption more than you're anxious to hang on to the
  • 00:29:50.496 --> 00:29:51.063
  • Anxious to hang on to the familiarity of the pain that
  • 00:29:51.197 --> 00:29:54.934
  • Familiarity of the pain that two years later even though you
  • 00:29:55.067 --> 00:29:55.701
  • Two years later even though you had this time that you
  • 00:29:55.835 --> 00:29:56.335
  • Had this time that you separated from your mom your
  • 00:29:56.469 --> 00:29:58.070
  • Separated from your mom your mom became ill and you had to
  • 00:29:58.204 --> 00:29:58.938
  • Mom became ill and you had to make a about whether you would
  • 00:29:59.071 --> 00:30:01.907
  • Make a about whether you would make a last contact with her or
  • 00:30:02.041 --> 00:30:05.678
  • Make a last contact with her or not you did you chose to see
  • 00:30:05.811 --> 00:30:06.545
  • Not you did you chose to see her and how did that work for
  • 00:30:06.679 --> 00:30:09.115
  • Her and how did that work for you?
  • 00:30:09.248 --> 00:30:09.381
  • You? it was interesting because when
  • 00:30:09.515 --> 00:30:12.718
  • It was interesting because when my sister called and said mom
  • 00:30:12.852 --> 00:30:13.452
  • My sister called and said mom is sick and she's dying and i
  • 00:30:13.586 --> 00:30:16.755
  • Is sick and she's dying and i really began to pray like lord,
  • 00:30:16.889 --> 00:30:17.523
  • Really began to pray like lord, do i go?
  • 00:30:17.656 --> 00:30:17.857
  • Do i go? and i kept telling i have
  • 00:30:17.990 --> 00:30:20.893
  • And i kept telling i have peace.
  • 00:30:21.026 --> 00:30:21.193
  • Peace. and what god clearly said to me
  • 00:30:21.327 --> 00:30:22.061
  • And what god clearly said to me is is this is not about her
  • 00:30:22.194 --> 00:30:25.397
  • Is is this is not about her peace.
  • 00:30:25.531 --> 00:30:25.698
  • Peace. this is about this is not about
  • 00:30:25.831 --> 00:30:26.465
  • This is about this is not about your peace.
  • 00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:26.866
  • Your peace. it's about her her peace.
  • 00:30:26.999 --> 00:30:28.901
  • It's about her her peace. wow.
  • 00:30:29.034 --> 00:30:29.201
  • Wow. and i thought okay, i can do
  • 00:30:29.335 --> 00:30:30.002
  • And i thought okay, i can do that.
  • 00:30:30.136 --> 00:30:30.302
  • That. and so i went to go her that
  • 00:30:30.436 --> 00:30:31.904
  • And so i went to go her that last time.
  • 00:30:32.037 --> 00:30:32.271
  • Last time. >> and it's interesting because
  • 00:30:32.404 --> 00:30:33.005
  • >> and it's interesting because i was so worried what she was
  • 00:30:33.139 --> 00:30:36.041
  • I was so worried what she was going to say after all the
  • 00:30:36.175 --> 00:30:36.709
  • Going to say after all the years we hadn't seen each other
  • 00:30:36.842 --> 00:30:39.645
  • Years we hadn't seen each other and what she looked at me as
  • 00:30:39.778 --> 00:30:40.613
  • And what she looked at me as that said and i said it was
  • 00:30:40.746 --> 00:30:41.380
  • That said and i said it was like the holy spirit was in the
  • 00:30:41.514 --> 00:30:44.150
  • Like the holy spirit was in the room where she said sometimes
