Manage episode 376736709 series 3421066
Join us as we explore both the positive and negative patterns that often govern our interactions within families. Discover those seemingly subtle yet powerful negative patterns that may be invisibly shaping our lives, patterns that no longer serve us.
We shed light on the sometimes useful strategy of avoidance, which can help maintain family relationships, but caution on its potential negative impact. Curiosity brings us to look at the pros and cons of avoidance.
Prepare to exercise your "NO Muscle” as we discuss how setting boundaries can be a game-changer in family dynamics. Learn how to invite people into the repair process, fostering healthier relationships.
We explore change, self-awareness, and understanding how certain behaviors of others invite specific responses and how empathy can transform our interactions.
Ultimately, we challenge the status quo by asking, "What happens when I do it differently?" This podcast episode is a journey through the complexities of family dynamics, offering valuable insights, actionable advice, and the promise that change, though challenging and uncomfortable, is always possible.
Tune in as we navigate the intricacies of family life, inviting you to become a detective in your own relationships and embark on a path of self-discovery and transformation.

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), the Tsuut’ina, the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
