  • The SonRise Project Ep. 330 - Freeing Ourselves Form Guilt
    Jul 18 2026

    Welcome to The SonRise Project! I'm Kelli Joy Richardson, and I would like to thank you for joining us in this safe space where all your questions on mental health, parenting, and emotional well-being are welcome.

    Joining me is our resident expert Dr. Linda McGhee here to share her insights and offer guidance as we navigate through Freeing Ourselves From Guilt. Follow her on Instagram: @linda_mcghee1

    What You'll Learn:

    In this episode, Dr. McGhee dives deep into the silent weight of guilt that so many of us carry — the kind that lingers long after we have apologized, made amends, or moved on in every way except emotionally. She will explore the difference between healthy conviction and destructive guilt, why women in particular struggle to release themselves from past mistakes and perceived failures, and the practical and faith-filled steps we can take to finally lay it down, extend grace to ourselves, and walk forward with a lighter heart. A freeing and deeply personal conversation for anyone who is ready to stop being a prisoner to what they can no longer change.

    Jun 24 2026

    Welcome to The SonRise Project! I'm Kelli Joy Richardson, and I would like to thank you for joining us in this safe space where all your questions on mental health, parenting, and emotional well-being are welcome.

    Joining me is Derek Triplett, here to share his insights and offer encouragement as we navigate Fathers, Sons, and Mental Health. Follow him on instagram: @derektripplett

    What You'll Learn:

    In this episode, Derek Triplett opens up about the powerful and often unspoken connection between the fathers in our lives and the mental and emotional health of our sons. He will explore how the presence or absence of a father shapes a young man's sense of worth, identity, and ability to cope, why mental health conversations between fathers and sons are so rare and why they are so necessary, and practical ways fathers can show up with intention, vulnerability, and strength for the boys who are watching their every move. An honest and heartfelt conversation for every father, son, and family who understands that healing the next generation starts with the men who lead them.
