About

In this episode, I sat down with multimedia artist and fierce advocate Carmen Pineda-Selva to explore the heartbreaking and often hidden impacts of parental alienation 💔

Key Takeaways:

    💡 Parental alienation impacts ~15% of divorces, affecting millions each year🧠 Education and self-care are crucial for targeted parents to stay strong and show up for their kids🧒 Understanding manipulation tactics and your child’s experience can help navigate this painful terrain📚 Resources like Dr. Ramani, Ryan Thomas & the Anti-Alienation Project offer support and insight (see links to their resources in the show notes below)

🌪️ Carmen shared her deeply personal story:

    From losing contact with her daughters to battling false accusations in courtHow a motorcycle tour (yes, really! 🏍️) helped shift her perspective and rekindle hopeThe importance of staying positive and creating choice-rich environments when contact is limited

📊 The Stats Are Staggering:

    3.9M children are moderately to severely alienated each yearOver 22M targeted parents in the U.S.💔 54% experience suicidal ideation, with far too many lives lost to the pain of alienation
