The Ache of Belonging - Family Estrangement & Healing with Karl Melvin

In this episode Sharon is joined by psychotherapist, author and educator Karl Melvin, who works extensively with adults navigating family struggles and estrangement. Together, they explore what family estrangement truly means beyond the labels- emotionally, relationally, and somatically. Karl brings a clinical yet deeply compassionate lens to family dynamics and how awareness becomes the first step toward healing. This conversation is an invitation: to move away from blame, toward self-connection; away from silence, toward truth; and away from surviving family dynamics, toward choosing yourself with compassion. This conversation gently unpacks: What is estrangement What safety really means and how to begin feeling it in the body Learning to listen to our body’s signals and rebuilding trust from within The importance of not rejecting ourselves, even when we’ve been rejected Navigating confrontation and conflict without shame, blame, or self-betrayal Clinical insights and research around estrangement and relational trauma Why being seen and heard is central to healing Taking personal responsibility for our healing without self-blame or judgement Find out more about Karl's work and book: https://www.karlmelvin.com/ Your Host : https://www.sharonfitzmauricemindfuln... #estrangement #dysfunctionalfamily #podcast
