EP 67 | When Pain Explains It—but Doesn’t Excuse It: The Lindsay Clancy Case (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How do we hold compassion and accountability at the same time? In this episode, Jonathan Kindler reflects on the devastating Lindsay Clancy case and the larger question underneath it: what responsibility remains when someone’s capacity is genuinely impaired?

EP 66 | Listener Question: I Went No Contact—and I Feel Better. What Now? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What do you do when creating distance from a difficult relationship brings relief—but also leaves you wondering whether you made the right decision?

Read excerpt
What happens when cutting someone off starts to feel like proof that healing is taking place? In this Thinking Through episode, Jonathan Kindler examines the growing cultural movement toward going no contact with family and asks when distance is wise—and when it becomes avoidance.
