Childhood is a funny thing. You can only really understand it in hindsight and as we become adults we begin to reconsider the ways in which our families have shaped us, for better or for worse. In today's episode, we break down the complicated ways we rethink our family dynamics in adulthood, including:
What happens when our family lets us down
Our adult reaction to childhood trauma
Do we confront our family or move past it?
Dealing with emotionally immature parents
How to find closure on your own
Navigating difficult family dynamics around the holidays
We welcomed on an amazing guest, Gwendloyn Watson, a Marriage and Family Therapist with an expertise in navigating complicated family dynamics and her family story to guide us through these topics.
