Navigating Parental Alienation
Navigate Successfully Through Your Experience of Being Alienated as a Parent
"My podcast is the guidebook I was looking for two decades ago when I was going through being alienated as a parent and no one understood what was happening to my family. I learned what works, what doesn’t, and why."
If you know or suspect that your children are being alienated from you, NAVIGATING PARENTAL ALIENATION is for you. And it's for anyone who is trying to help or support someone dealing with parental alienation.
And COMING SOON: NAVIGATING PARENTAL ALIENATION - THE ONLINE COURSE launching in June 2024. It's a step by step guide to understanding and then defeating parental alienation.
"My course guides parents through their pain to release their trauma, build their resilience and learn compassionate communication that reconnects them with their children."
Jacqueline Rourke is a former targeted parent who is using her skills as an an award-winning broadcast journalist to help other targeted parents regain their sanity and reconnect with their alienated children. She shares everything she learned while suffering through alienation to be able to come out the other side and reconnect fully with her children.
In this podcast, Jacqueline interviews parents who are alienated from their children, as well as mental health clinicians, legal professionals, researchers and other experts who have something helpful and meaningful to share.
If you are alienated from your children, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Hearing from other parents about their experience will help you understand what may be going on in your situation. And Jacqueline's insight into what works and what doesn't will empower you to act with confidence as you work to reconnect with your alienated children.
Jacqueline is on a mission to raise public awareness about parental alienation, and to inform legal and mental health professionals about it — most of whom have no training and little awareness about this tragically common phenomenon.
“It is time to eliminate parental alienation.”
Navigating Parental Alienation
Episode 1 - What is Parental Alienation?
What did you think about our podcast?
Jacqueline introduces us to the concept of Parental Alienation, when a child is influenced by the other parent or parental figure to reject their parent. We learn how Parental Alienation (PA) is different from estrangement, when a child has a justifiable reason to reject a parent. She reviews the Five Factors that define PA and help determine if a child’s rejection is justifiable (due to abuse or poor parenting), or whether it’s a case of alienation.
Jacqueline shares new language and new concepts she has developed about “targeted” parents and “preferred” parents to empower parents who have been unjustly alienated from their children.
We meet Maya, a mother who has been alienated from her children for 6 years. She describes how painful and confusing being alienated from one’s children is, and how the alienation usually extends to the entire rejected parent’s side of the family. They review the 17 alienating behaviors identified by clinicians and researchers that alienating parents engage in to destroy the relationship between a child and their other parent. Jacqueline and Maya discuss how isolating alienation is, and how this podcast will bring helpful information and a sense of community to empower parents who feel all alone in this painful situation.
