Kristy and Angie are back for a new season and they update everyone on what has been going on in their lives. Angie talks about (puppy) parenting guilt and Kristy talks about living her new life in another city. Angie reflects on a childhood incident that had impacted her deeply. Kristy reflects on pursuing an experience for herself and not for filial piety obligations.

**Content warning: Death, childhood trauma

Takeaway:

  • We begin to understand our parents more when we step into parental roles
  • We are not responsible for the happiness of our parents and vice versa
  • Being forced to bring joy to the rest of the family suppresses other emotions and we end up equating our value with displaying feel good emotions
  • Emotional boundaries and codependency are a two way street and sometimes we forget that we also hold back our parents from living their best life
  • Drawing boundaries with your parents will not dissolve your relationship with them, and might make it even better
