When a Parent Becomes Estranged [Divergence VI 4/4]

Our Intergenerational Divergence series is sponsored by our friends Sarala and Danny Turkel.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to a father and daughter who were estranged and then reunited. We also speak with Adam Pollock, the estrangement specialist who inspired them to reconcile.

In this episode we discuss:
  • Are there specific struggles that lead to estrangement in the Orthodox Jewish world?
  • How do we handle the tension between the need to heal and the need to be right?
  • How do we avoid regression once family members have been reunited?
Tune in to hear a conversation about our essential and unchanging identities that transcend our circumstances.

Interview begins at 20:50.

Adam N. Pollock is the founder of Aaron’s Legacy, where he specializes in mediating family estrangement using a blend of ancient wisdom and modern conflict resolution techniques. Since 2015, he has helped individuals and families navigate some of their most painful relational fractures with compassion, rigor, and creativity. A former attorney and business executive, Adam brings decades of experience in negotiation, arbitration, and high-stakes decision-making to his work as an estrangement mediator. He holds a B.A. in Psychology from The George Washington University and a J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh, and is the author of Secrets From the Legal Pad (2023).
