Episode notes

Writer and coach Andrew Kauffmann was raised in a loving family, but as a young, gay man in the early 90s, he struggled with self-acceptance and his mental health. He sought the approval of his dad, but felt like he could never quite measure up. When his mum died aged only 50, his family constellation was forever changed. Then later, as an adult, Andrew made a life changing sacrifice to extend his father’s life.


Andrew’s path through adulthood is defined by the challenges, joys, devastation and transformational power of parental relationships, and he shares his inspiring and thoughtful story with Peter Leonard.
