Healing Without an Apology — and Learning to Give One | A Lil' R&R Podcast Ep. 3

What happens when an apology never comes — and what happens when you choose to give one anyway? In Episode 4 of The Lil R&R Podcast, we sit down together as father and son to reflect on father wounds, apology, accountability, and the moments that shape who we become as men and as parents. We talk honestly about growing up without apologies, how silence and unresolved hurt carry forward, and why humility is often harder — but more healing — than authority. Rodney Sr. reflects on learning to live without hearing “I’m sorry,” while Rodney Jr. shares a vulnerable parenting moment where stress crossed a line, fear entered the room, and repair became necessary. This episode isn’t about perfect fathers or flawless sons. It’s about recognizing the moment, owning it, and choosing a different response. 👉 Subscribe on YouTube for full episodes and clips 👉 Follow us on Instagram & TikTok for short-form moments, reflections, and behind-the-scenes conversations 👉 Join the discussion in the comments — we read them 00:00 – Intro: When “Sorry” Never Came 02:18 – Growing Up Without Apologies 06:40 – How Silence Becomes a Wound 11:55 – Learning to Live Without “I’m Sorry” 17:30 – Authority, Pride, and Emotional Distance 23:10 – When Stress Crosses a Line at Home 28:45 – Seeing Fear in Your Child’s Eyes 34:20 – The Power of Accountability 39:55 – Apology as Leadership 45:30 – Repair vs Defensiveness 51:10 – Forgiveness Without Closure 56:40 – Why Humility Breaks Cycles 01:02:15 – What We Don’t Want to Pass Down 01:08:40 – Choosing a Different Legacy 01:14:30 – Final Reflections on Healing and Growth
