When Ann's world was turned upside down by her daughter's addiction and mental health struggles, she was thrown into a journey that no guidebook on parenting could prepare her for. Her heart-rending tale of seeking therapy and rehabilitation for her daughter and confronting the heavy cloak of self-blame unfolds in this episode with raw honesty.
Ann Batchelder served as Editor of FIBERARTS Magazine, was guest curator for the Asheville Art Museum, worked as an account executive at a Manhattan advertising agency, and was Director of Special Events for the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Ann earned an MSW in psychotherapy. Her book Craving Spring -a mother's quest, a daughter's depression, and the Greek myth that brought them together
Taking a page from the timeless Greek myth of Demeter and Persephone, we weave through the intricate dance of holding on and letting go that every parent must learn. Ann's experience opens a window into storytelling's transformative power in healing and self-discovery, challenging the conventional wisdom of 'how-to' parenting in favour of a journey to self-trust. The conversation also serves as a salient reminder that breaking through the silence on mental health can foster a community rich in compassion and support, one story at a time.
As we wrap up the conversation, Anne's insights into navigating the intricacies of mother-daughter communication shine a light on the potential of listening and responding with intention. The wisdom she imparts on guiding children into adulthood, coupled with her journey chronicled in "Craving Spring," offers a touchstone for those grappling with similar tribulations. This episode isn't just a sharing of experiences; it's an invitation to embrace the collective strength of vulnerability and remember that you are not alone in the face of adversity.
Ann is the mother of two adult children and lives with her husband in Asheville, NC. She just published her memoir.
Let's enjoy her story!
