Kibbud Av V’em—the commandment to honor one’s parents. But what happens when your parents are not healthy… when they are deeply difficult people?

How do you face the grief of knowing they will never be the safe place you needed or crave?
How do you handle the grief of always having to be the “adult in the room”, even when you were just a child.

How do you keep your integrity when you can’t trust the people who raised you?
How do you mourn the parents you wish you had… without drowning in that loss?

With over forty years of experience in family therapy, Yehudis Karbal speaks with rare honesty and deep compassion about breaking free from unhealthy patterns. She offers practical tools to set boundaries without guilt and to choose your actions with clarity and intention.

Is it possible to honor your parents without abandoning yourself? Can you bridge the gap between what you feel and what you do? With her signature whiteboard and piercing insight, Yehudis shows you how to make choices that are not only “right,” but profoundly healing.
