In this deeply personal and unexpectedly powerful episode, Tombo opens up about a lifelong ache he didn’t even fully recognize—his complicated relationship with the two mothers who shaped his childhood. What begins as a conversation about “mom issues” unfolds into a vulnerable journey through fear, introspection, counseling, and unexpected healing.
Tombo shares candidly about walking through his wife Adryann’s battle with breast cancer, the counseling sessions that followed, and how one simple question from his counselor, Caitlin, unraveled decades of pain. Along the way, he talks about the role of fear, the power of intention, and the surprising ways the body and mind speak when we finally give them quiet.
This episode explores:
- Growing up with two mothers and the deep impact of conditional vs. unconditional love
- The importance of personal responsibility while still honoring your own story
- The emotional fallout of revisiting childhood memories during a family crisis
- The power of counseling and introspective practices
- A breakthrough moment that closed a hole in the heart that had existed for years
- Why intention, imagination, and simple acknowledgment (“I see you”) can change everything
“Mama” is raw, honest, and full of hope—an invitation to anyone carrying old wounds from parents, childhood, or unmet needs. If you’ve ever felt like something essential was missing, this episode might just offer the perspective and healing you’ve been waiting for.
And above all, remember: I got you.
