Gibson is here to assure you that you're not imagining it. You're not too sensitive. You're not overreacting. And you're not alone. If you find yourself struggling to set boundaries, you're still craving your parent's approval, or you're always walking on eggshells to keep the peace, Dr. Gibson says the reason you feel this way is because you grew up with an emotionally immature parent. And today you'll finally understand what that means. You're about to learn the 4 subtle signs you had an emotionally immature parent and how that shapes your adult life – and the exact path to healing. Today's episode is not about blame.

She is a pioneering expert on the topic of emotionally immature parents, and is the author of the New York Times bestseller "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, or Self-Involved Parents."  If you've spent your entire life feeling like something was off in your relationship with your parents, but you could never quite put your finger on it, Dr. Gibson is here to say: You were right. And if you feel guilty for just considering that something might have been off, you need to hear this conversation today. This is an episode you don't want to miss. For more resources, click here for the podcast episode page. If you liked this episode, you'll love listening to this one next: Why You Feel Lost in Life: Dr. Gabor Maté on Trauma & How to HealConnect with Mel: Get Mel's #1 bestselling book, The Let Them TheoryWatch the episodes on YouTubeFollow Mel on Instagram The Mel Robbins Podcast InstagramMel's TikTokSign up for Mel's personal letterSubscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes ad-freeDisclaimer

Send us a textAs we age, living with and influencing our adult children is a huge theme in life. In this podcast, listen to Hal as he interviews well-known psychologist, Dr. Ken Wilgus about life with adult children. Ken has written an exceptional book entitled, Feeding the Mouth That Bites You, and while Ken's book focuses on the adolescent years, the principles he shares are timeless and critically important in the years we share with our adult children.Dr. Hal Habecker and Ken Wilgus discuss the challenges of parenting adult children and the concept of planned emancipation. Ken emphasizes the cultural shift in how children transition to adulthood, noting the lack of a universally agreed-upon method. He highlights the importance of signaling to children that they are seen as adults and respecting their choices. They also touch on the impact of cultural changes, such as expressive individualism, on identity and the isolation it creates. Dr. Habecker stresses the need for Christians to live strong adult lives and encourage their children spiritually, using personal stories and experiences rather than lectures.-----Dr. Wilgus has been a practicing psychologist for over thirty years. He received a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin, an M.A. from Trinity University and a B.A. from Baylor University. He completed his internship at the Michael Reese Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Wilgus served as Director of Child and Adolescent Services at the Minirth-Meier Clinic in Dallas, Texas. He maintains a private practice in Dallas Texas. Although he is no longer accepting new adolescent patients, Dr. Wilgus consults with parents as well as providing marriage and individual, adult therapy.Support the showEmail us: Hal@finishingwellministries.orgFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/finishingwellministriesSupport Our Ministry: https://www.finishingwellministries.org/donateAre there biblical principles to help us understand how to finish well?Join Dr. Habecker LIVE on ZOOM for a greater understanding of the SEVEN Essentials to Finishing Life Well: https://www.finishingwellministries.org/upcoming-eventsThanks for listening as we all strive to live and finish life well!

In this episode of the Sharing Without Shame podcast, host Donna Marston sits down with Barb Nangle, a former people-pleaser turned boundaries coach, who shares her deeply personal journey from codependency to empowerment. Barb opens up about a pivotal moment in her life when helping a homeless friend led her to hit a codependent bottom, ultimately guiding her into the world of recovery through Codependents Anonymous (CODA) and later Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families (ACA). She describes the transformative impact of understanding codependency and relational trauma, and how discovering the concept of “reparenting” changed her life.As a podcast host herself, Barb brings heartfelt insight and wisdom, especially for those who find themselves over-giving, rescuing, or enabling loved ones—often under the guise of care. She unpacks the difference between healthy helping and unhealthy rescuing, shares tools for self-care, and explains how boundaries rooted in personal values can lead to emotional freedom. Whether you're a parent of someone in active addiction or someone struggling with boundaries, Barb's story offers a compassionate yet practical roadmap to healing and wholeness.Links:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/higherpowercoaching/Website: https://higherpowercc.com/Sponsors: Experience Inner Peace with Calming Therapy BraceletsWebsite: ⁠https://snappbandz.com/Use SWOS or SharingWithoutShame code Thank you for tuning in!

Send us a textThe journey from being a hands-on parent to navigating relationships with adult children brings unexpected challenges that few of us are prepared to handle. How do we maintain meaningful connections while respecting their growing independence? When do we offer advice versus simply listening? And what happens when our children make choices that conflict with our values or expectations?This deeply personal episode explores the delicate evolution of parent-child relationships as our children mature into adulthood. Drawing from my own experiences as a divorced mother of four adult children, I share candid insights about letting go of control and embracing a new paradigm based on mutual respect. The key question that guides my approach: "What does love look like here?"We examine practical strategies for respecting boundaries, avoiding unsolicited advice, and healing past wounds through honest communication. For those who've experienced divorce or betrayal, I offer compassionate guidance on helping your children process their grief while managing your own emotional landscape. The reality is that our children witnessed our pain during these difficult transitions, and acknowledging this shared history creates space for authentic connection.Perhaps most challenging is releasing our preconceived notions about how our children's lives "should" unfold. When they choose different spiritual paths, career directions, or relationship structures than we imagined, we face a profound opportunity for growth. By trusting our children's capacity to navigate their own journeys and cultivating rich, independent lives of our own, we free them from feeling responsible for our happiness while modeling healthy adulthood.Whether you're struggling with empty nest syndrome, navigating post-divorce family dynamics, or simply wanting to deepen your connection with your grown children, this episode offers heartfelt wisdom for transforming your relationship. Ready to move beyond old patterns and create something beautiful?

Marc Cox talks with Thomas R. Graffeo about the increasing number of parents financially supporting adult children, with an average contribution of $1,400 per month. They discuss the financial and emotional challenges this trend presents, including its impact on retirement planning, the importance of setting clear boundaries, and acceptable circumstances for temporary support. Thomas shares insight into how ongoing financial assistance can delay retirement by 5–8 years and stresses the need for honest conversations to protect long-term financial goals. A personal story also highlights the importance of motivation and not becoming a long-term burden.

In Hour 3 of the Marc Cox Morning Show, we dive into several important topics. First, we hear live audio from Tom Holman, former ICE Director, discussing the challenges of judges obstructing ICE arrests and his insights on border security policy. Holman highlights key successes in reducing illegal immigration and human trafficking. The conversation continues with Tom Graffeo, CFP, who shares valuable advice about the growing trend of parents financially supporting their adult children. With 50% of parents still providing an average of $1,400 per month, Tom discusses how to navigate the delicate balance of offering support while maintaining healthy boundaries and protecting your own financial future. Ashley Smith Thomas, Political Strategist and Founder & CEO of Freedom Fund USA, joins the show to discuss the broader political landscape surrounding immigration enforcement, Governor Pritzker's resistance to federal immigration policies, and the legal and political implications of border security measures.

I'd love to hear from you!Have you ever felt trapped by your own inability to say "no"? In this powerful conversation with boundaries coach Barb Nangle, we explore how setting healthy limits can transform your life from constant people-pleasing to genuine freedom.Barb shares her remarkable personal journey that began when she invited a homeless man to stay in her home during a snowstorm – a seemingly kind gesture that quickly spiraled into feeling trapped in her own space. This crisis point led her to discover 12-step recovery programs and the profound concept of "reparenting" herself. As she explains, many of us grew up in environments where dysfunction was normalized, leaving us without models for healthy boundaries.The conversation delves into practical strategies for developing an "inner loving parent" to counter the harsh inner critic most of us carry within. Barb introduces the transformative concept of "info, not ammo" – using self-knowledge as information for growth rather than ammunition for self-criticism. This shift from judgment to curiosity creates space for genuine healing and empowerment.What makes this episode particularly valuable is the honest examination of how uncomfortable boundary-setting can feel initially. Many people describe feeling like they might "die" when first establishing limits, especially if they've spent a lifetime in enmeshed relationships. Yet as Barb powerfully states, "Choose your difficult – do you want difficulties to last forever and get worse over time, or do you want to go through a very difficult time for a brief period and then have healing on the other side?"Whether you struggle with people-pleasing, feel responsible for everyone's happiness, or simply want more freedom in your relationships, this conversation offers practical wisdom for building the boundaries that will transform your life.

From March 28, 1989: Oprah talks to adults who share stories of the emotional abuse they suffered as children and how it still affects them today. Psychotherapist and author of How to Raise Your Self-Esteem, Dr. Nathaniel Branden explains the difference between conscious living and unconscious living, and how making small changes to be more conscious in your life can improve your self-esteem. He also explains why some people are able to transcend abusive circumstances when others cannot. Dr. Branden passed away in 2014 at age 84 from complications with Parkinson's disease.

Dr. Lindsay Gibson joins Forrest to explore emotional immaturity, the consequences of growing up with emotionally immature caregivers, and what we can do to change those patterns in adulthood. They discuss the key signs of emotional immaturity, including egocentrism, low empathy, and affective realism.

Topics include the problems with “just be more compassionate,” estrangement, balancing competing desires, and how to heal in adulthood by reconnecting with your feelings, letting go of old fantasies, and setting healthy boundaries.
