How do we heal? When we do have some of these childhood wounds, how do we heal when we don't have that reciprocity with a parent?

It's quite counter-cultural. And also the whole idea that Alex, you want there to also be joy in healing. Like this is the first time I've ever experienced that. To me, I thought healing was just feeling better. It wasn't an action. It was just like time was going to heal all wounds and then I'd feel better. But maybe I was getting half of it right.

I was and am and always have been going towards joy, which is a healing mechanism.

I think it's good, too, because you've got to check in with yourself, almost do it every morning, because when I walk upstairs and you're up there already and she's like, how are you? How did you sleep? And she starts asking me these questions. I am now like, oh, I go into myself, but I haven't had that experience. conversation with myself first. You don't even know.

How much is this, do you think, related to mortality? Because as you go through your 20s, it feels like 20s are just like, what is life? I don't know what the hell I'm doing. And then you kind of start settling into a groove. Well, some of us. I didn't really until I was in my 40s. How much do you think of this process of healing has to do with the idea of, oh, I may be midway through my life.

We love you. I love you. So Glennon didn't tell me about this conversation. She just was reading these books and we were on vacation and Once in a blue moon, Glennon will be reading a book and just go, fuck. And I feel scared. I'm like, what? Like, what? What's going on? She's like, it's just so beautiful.

And so this was happening countless times during our vacation when she was reading your poetry. And so it prompted me to get online and And look you up and figure out who this person was. And I DM'd you a picture of what was happening at our table. Like, yes, my wife reads while we eat.

The Bravest Conversation We’ve Had: Andrea Gibson (Best Of)
And so what set off was, you know, DMs back and forth. And here we are in this conversation right now.

So I had a little different experience. Mine was, it was, I would say, godly experience where... I like saw my parents and, and they don't really listen to the show. So I don't feel bad about saying this. I love you though. Mom and dad, that God was kind of like, Oh, sweetheart talking to me. Like I, I gave you to ordinary people and they were never going to understand you.
We Can Do Hard Things
The Bravest Conversation We’ve Had: Andrea Gibson (Best Of)
And so I just started weeping. And I don't mean to sound arrogant or anything, but I have always felt so different than my parents and so unlike them. Not that I am special and they're ordinary. It's just, there was just this very big difference in the way that we approached the world and life. And that was the first real understanding.
We Can Do Hard Things
The Bravest Conversation We’ve Had: Andrea Gibson (Best Of)
Like I've, I consciously have like understood it in my, in my brain, but I never in my spirit. Cause there's a, there's a disconnect there. My parents, I felt like almost dishonorable by even thinking that. So I had the permission, I feel like in this experience to say, it's okay that we're different, you know? I don't know, but it was profound.

They're an expression of something in you. And for me, a fear, like a trauma, a worry, something was getting released. And for you, it was an awareness coming more to your forefront.
We Can Do Hard Things
The Bravest Conversation We’ve Had: Andrea Gibson (Best Of)
I am amazed by you and your willingness to come on. I think that bravery is not the right word here. And you going through what you're going through right now. I have an intense fear of death. And so I was terrified to come on and talk to you about this. For a lot of reasons, it's like so confronting. And you are just wonderful to talk to. And I think that you have so much to teach us.
