21 - You Need Forgiveness, Not Approval

Have you ever felt torn between loving your parents… and resenting them?
Like they were doing their best, but their best still left you feeling unseen, misunderstood, or emotionally starved?

If you’re neurodivergent - especially autistic, ADHD, or both - this can run even deeper.
Because what you needed wasn’t just love.
You needed presence. Attunement. Emotional safety.
And when that wasn’t there, your nervous system noticed - even if your mind didn’t yet understand.

Forgiveness isn’t saying it was okay.
It’s saying you’re no longer carrying it.


In this week’s episode of the Inner Magic Academy podcast, we explore:
✨ How conditional love shapes identity and emotional survival
✨ Why emotional neglect hits neurodivergent kids harder
✨ Understanding your parents as wounded children in adult bodies
✨ The truth about forgiveness — and why it’s for you, not them
✨ How reparenting yourself becomes the deepest act of freedom
