Living With Family Estrangement: Grief, Boundaries & Self Protection

Family estrangement is a grief many women carry quietly. In this episode of Rooted & Rising, Neola Zama sits with Candice Abraham-Santos for a tender, honest conversation about living with family estrangement — and the quiet, ongoing work of building self-boundaries that protect your peace. Together, we explore: • The grief of being unable to return to family relationships • How estrangement reshapes trust, safety, and belonging • What self-boundaries look like when outer boundaries aren’t enough • How women learn to protect themselves without hardening their hearts • Choosing self-trust when reconciliation isn’t possible This is not a conversation about blame or cutting people off lightly. It’s about honoring what was lost, tending to what remains, and learning how to live well — even with unanswered ache. If you’ve ever loved people you couldn’t safely return to, this episode is for you. 🎧 Rooted & Rising is a podcast for Caribbean women healing from relational pain and reclaiming lives that feel true.
