As a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, I specialize in family dynamics such as mediating resolution between estranged parents and estranged adult children.

Our children can assume that they know us since they lived with us, for typically, 18 years.
However, what does it take to actually know and understand someone else?

I understand that someone like Brene Brown cannot communicate with others in a real dialogue. She would be overwhelmed. However, what ends up happening is that she becomes a business. Unfortunately, it feels one-sided and impersonal. Just sayin'.

This article was prepared before the killing of George Floyd on May 25, 2020. The article does not explore anger in all its dimensions and instead, illustrates that anger has its place as an appropriate and natural emotion.
