When You’re Not Heard: The Pattern, The Breakdown, The Breakthrough
Happily Divorced with Karishma
In this deeply personal episode, I share what happened when I brought my family together to review my parents’ estate documents.
What started as a practical conversation about wills and wealth transfer turned into something much deeper.
Old dynamics resurfaced. I felt unheard. Ignored. Invisible.
And instead of numbing it or pushing past it, I let myself feel it.
This episode explores:
• The emotional realities behind estate planning and family wealth conversations
• What happens when daughters are spoken over • How old family roles quietly reappear
• The link between burnout and not valuing yourself
• Why we keep seeking validation from the people who cannot give it
• The hard truth about self-worth and productivity
• How to stop waiting for permission to rest
If you’ve ever felt unseen by your parents… If you’ve ever overextended yourself hoping someone would notice… If you’re exhausted from performing your value…
This episode is for you.
Because the breakthrough wasn’t about my father.
It was about me finally choosing myself.
