Restored: Helping Children of Divorce #149: He Was His Parents’ Therapist Until It Broke Him | Cole
What happens when you become your parents’ emotional confidant—their therapist—during a divorce? At first, it might feel like you’re helping. But eventually, it backfires and might even break you. That’s what happened to Cole.
In this episode, we explore:
How he went through his parents’ separation twice—and how each one affected him differently
How he’s slowly rebuilding family relationships after stepping away to heal
Why even small decisions felt impossible—and how he learned to choose with confidence
If you’ve ever acted as your parents’ therapist—or felt crushed by their divorce or the chaos at home—this episode is for you.
