My mother in law shows up randomly a fair bit. We have a good relationship and I'm glad to see her unless I need to shower.

Growli I'm not going to get on your case about this but I will say I think this is a mistake and realistically your life coach will make these mistakes as she's not a therapist. I think this served as further reminder she is not your mom and this hurt will keep hurting until it's dealt with properly.

Hope you can find peace.
