Podcasts about adult children

What if the unspoken rules of your childhood are still shaping your adult life? In this episode of With You in the Weeds, hosts Lynn and Shay Roush share a deeply personal conversation in their Dealing With Your Addictions series. Shay opens up about his upbringing in an alcoholic family, revealing how it impacted his trust, emotions, and relationships.  Here are the sobering statistics: 1 in 6 U.S. children live with an alcoholic parent (1 in 4 with substance abuse); alcoholism drives nearly 50% of divorces; it causes 12,000 annual drunk-driving deaths and 232 million missed workdays; and heavy use shortens life by 2–24 years.  Shay's story highlights that behind every statistic, there is a person and family deeply impacted by alcohol. In addition to lost jobs, DWI's, and stints in rehab facilities, Shay's dad created financial fears that ultimately led to his parent's divorce. Despite periods of sobriety, Shay's father eventually died from alcohol, leaving Shay with a legacy of alcoholism that he didn't want to repeat.  This episode unpacks the 5 spoken rules of alcoholic families that perpetuate the cycle: Don't Trust Don't Talk Don't Feel Play a Role Deny the Impact As a child grows up in this environment, these rules foster Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOAs) leading to fear of abandonment, difficulty trusting others, people-pleasing, emotional numbness, perfectionism, and addiction tendencies. Shay's journey demonstrates how God's transformative power helped him learn healthier patterns of relating, and break the cycle of addiction in his family, allowing him to be emotionally present for his family despite early temptations. We believe that future generations can be impacted when you name and break the unspoken rules of your alcoholic family and allow God to heal the broken parts of your heart. We recommend the book It Will Never Happen to Me by Claudia Black, for further explanation on the rules of an alcoholic family.  Connect with us & Subscribe to our weekly newsletter!

Even adult children need their parents. But when things get rocky, how can you improve relationships with adult children? In the evolving world of parenthood, maintaining a strong bond with adult children presents unique challenges. As children transition into adulthood, the dynamics shift, often leading to confusion for parents. However, with understanding and a strategic approach, it's possible to improve relationships with adult children and cultivate a healthy, fulfilling family connection. Understanding the Shift in Dynamics Once children turn 18, they are legally considered adults. This milestone often surprises parents who feel uncertain about their new role. As children grow into their independence, they become increasingly determined to make their own choices, sometimes clashing with their parents' ideals. This can lead to emotional chaos and strained relationships. However, understanding these dynamics is the first step to improving relationships with adult children. The Importance of Self-Connection For mothers, connecting with themselves is paramount. As the cornerstone of the family, maintaining inner peace is essential. By prioritizing self-awareness, moms can better navigate the emotional upheavals that come with parenting adult children. Self-care and inner reflection act as the glue that binds the family, providing stability during times of change. Listening and Validating Emotions Open communication is essential for improving relationships with adult children. It is necessary to engage in active listening, validate the emotions of your children, and initiate a dialogue about their feelings and experiences. By acknowledging their perspectives, parents can build a stronger, more respectful relationship. The Role of Faith-Based Strategies For those who treasure faith, integrating it into your parenting approach can help mend and strengthen familial ties. By relying on spiritual guidance, parents can find peace in surrendering their worries and trusting a higher power with their children's paths. This can lead to healing and transformation within the family unit. Read the full show notes and access all links.

The SOUL ON FIRE MOVIE COMES OUT TODAY! GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! I highly recommend that you bring your family to go see this movie!!! This is the most inspirational movie I've ever seen, you'll love experiencing this movie at the theater with other people! In the movie, you will see a great example of unconditional love. John Corbett (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), plays Denny in the movie and you can see him age and see the progession of Parkinson's disease.  My family got to be on set during the filming of the wedding scene of John and Beth O'Leary. My wife took a picture of Denny O'Leary in his wheel chair that day because she saw how happy and joyful he was. John O'Leary says his dad is the most joy filled person he has ever met. And I agree with John, his dad definitely displays the Fruits of the Spirit. In this episode, I read Denny's excert P is for Parkinson's from The ABC's of Christianity - A Father's Inspiration Advice to his Adult Children. And I also share some of my own thoughts about Denny and reflect on his writing to his adult children that was not meant for the public. But when people found out about what he wrote, they asked for copies. Denny printed about 1,000 of these and I was blessed to receive one from Denny before he passed away. One thing that blows everyone away, Denny refers to his Parkinson's as a gift. Imagine that, a disease that will progress to the point of you not being able to cause you to become weak, lose to the ability to move and ultimately kill you, and being able to appreciate what receiving his Parkinson's disease made possible and how it changed his life. There is a quote from Denny in the movie that people love, "You can't choose the path you walk in life, but you can choose how you walk it."

This week on The Pete the Planner Show, we're tackling one of the toughest money dilemmas families face today: when helping your adult children turns into hurting yourself. A listener writes in about her 31-year-old daughter who still lives at home, contributes nothing financially, and has become the center of a tug-of-war between supportive love and enabling behavior. Pete, Kristen, and Damian unpack the concept of financial enmeshment—those blurred parent/child roles where support becomes indefinite, boundaries vanish, and retirement plans quietly suffer. Why is this happening more than ever? Sky-high housing costs, student debt, and the return of loan payments all play a role, but so do fear, guilt, and a desire to shield kids from failure. We'll explore the emotional conflict between partners who disagree on rules, the hidden cost of Parent PLUS loans, and why “support without structure is just deferred conflict.” Then, we'll lay out practical tools for parents: aligning as a couple, having honest conversations with adult kids, and creating a phased transition plan that respects both love and limits. If you've ever wondered where generosity ends and enabling begins, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

When Lisa first found my podcast over three years ago, she was in a tough place: struggling with divorce, her relationships with her adult children and their spouses, and feelings of her own worth. Once she started listening consistently and figuring out how to start applying the concepts, she was hooked. She began taking classes and even worked one-on-one with me, and now, as one of her children told her, she is 'unrecognizable' from who she was before. Learning how to stay in her own lane, allow agency, and love without expectation has changed her life and her relationships.  Thanks for listening!  Want to learn more about this concept?  Check out these podcasts: #211 Why We Do This Work on Apple on Spotify #356 How Coaching Changed My Life with Stacey on Apple on Spotify Are you curious about what it would be like to work with me?

Parenting doesn't end when your kids grow up — it just changes. And for many, that shift can be confusing, frustrating, and even painful. How do you move from being the authority to being a supportive "peer"? And what do you do when your hopes for your adult children don't align with who they've become?

Drawing on decades of research, therapy, and her own lived experience, Dr. Toder shares practical wisdom on how to navigate this often-overlooked stage of family life. You'll learn how to let go, listen with empathy, and focus on your own growth while building stronger, healthier relationships with your adult kids — and perhaps, rediscovering yourself in the process.

The empty nest phase doesn't mean the end of meaningful parent-child connections – it simply marks the beginning of a new kind of relationship. As summer vacations end and college drop-offs happen across America, many parents find themselves reminiscing about family trips and wondering how to maintain closeness with their now-adult children.Travel creates a unique opportunity to reconnect with adult children in ways that regular family gatherings often cannot. When we remove ourselves from daily distractions, responsibilities, and established home dynamics, we create space for authentic connection. Whether you're navigating an estranged relationship or simply want deeper conversations with your grown child who's busy with their own life, a shared journey offers neutral ground where new understanding can flourish.Success comes from thoughtful planning and approaching the experience differently than family vacations of the past. Understanding your adult child's travel personality (Are they adventure-seekers like my younger son or museum-lovers like my oldest?), involving them in destination decisions, setting clear financial expectations, and creating space for organic conversations are all crucial elements. Most importantly, treat them as the adults they've become – not as children who need constant oversight. Some of my most treasured moments with my sons happened unexpectedly, like a 1:30 AM heart-to-heart in an Irish castle after a false fire alarm. These shared experiences create lasting memories that strengthen your bond for years to come, and might even inspire your children to pursue their own love of travel – as my sons now do independently. Whether you're healing past wounds or simply creating new chapters together, travel offers the perfect setting to truly see and appreciate the adults your children have become.Ready to reconnect? Consider planning a trip with your adult child – it might become one of the most meaningful experiences of your relationship. The memories you create will last a lifetime, and the conversations you have might never have happened any other way.Support the showhttps://www.cherylbeckesch.com Instagram @solotraveladventures50Facebook community: Solo Travel for Women Over 50 https://www.facebook.com/groups/860865768609200

Dr Joyce Harper, Professor of Reproductive Science at the Institute for Women's Health at University College London, joins Nuala McGovern to discuss the evidence. When we think about children in situations of domestic abuse, it's often young children we think of - but what about adult children? We received a letter from a listener telling us about a dilemma she is facing. After previously being in an abusive relationship with the father of her four adult children, she's now considering whether to tell them that their parents' relationship was coercive. Gemma Sherrington, CEO of Refuge, and coercive control expert Dr Gemma Katz join us to discuss the issues around a parent deciding whether to be honest with their grown-up children or continue to protect them from their reality. Jess wrote in to tell us about a poem she came across on social media about the post-partum period, calling it “absolutely beautiful”. She added: “There are hundreds of comments across Instagram and TikTok of mothers feeling exactly the same way. Please check it out, I would love to hear more from this poet.” We've tracked her down and her name is Amy Williams. She joins us to perform the poem live in the studio. Listener Sarah Hutchinson wants to know more about dreams. Specifically, why she has been having more vivid, memorable dreams during the recent heatwaves, and whether women's experience of dreaming is linked to the menstrual cycle? Sarah joins Nuala along with Caroline Horton, Professor of Sleep and Cognition and director of the DrEAMSLab at Bishop Grosseteste University. And listener Heather tells us what it was like setting up one of the first dating agencies in the 1980s, aimed at helping people in rural communities find love.
