The parent–child relationship doesn’t end when children grow up, it changes and that transformation can feel emotional, confusing, and deeply personal. Many parents struggle to let go without losing connection, while adult children want independence without drifting away.

In this episode of The Wellness Algorithm, I’m joined by Dr Darya Haitoglou, globally recognised psychologist and founder of Enrich Global, to explore how parent–child relationships can evolve with respect, trust, and emotional understanding. She touches upon Virginia Satir communication tools for conflict resolution, among other bonding insights. 

Through science, real-life insight, and compassionate guidance, this episode is about how parents can move from control to trust, shift from authority to presence, and build a healthier, more independent yet deeply connected bond with their adult children.
