More Than One Thing Can Be True

Rethinking What We Know About Family Estrangement

Family estrangement is often discussed as though there must be one correct version of what happened. One person was harmed. One person caused the harm. One account is accurate, and the other is not.

More Than One Thing Can Be True questions that certainty. It looks at memory, boundaries, intent, impact, accountability, grief, and the stories people build around relationships that have broken down.

This isn't an argument for reconciliation, and it isn't an argument for estrangement. It's an examination of what we can know about another person's experience, what we can't know, and what changes when we become a little less certain that our version of the relationship is the only one that can be true.

Living With Family Estrangement, Grief, and the Possibility of Reconciliation

Carry It Differently explores what it means to live with family estrangement, the grief that can accompany it, and the uncertainty of relationships that may never return to what they once were.

It considers how we carry loss, how our understanding of difficult relationships can change, and how we can move forward without requiring certainty about reconciliation or the future.
