Conscious Parenting Workshop: A Teaser – Ep 665 by Dr. Brad Reedy

In this powerful episode of Typology, I'm honored to sit down with Enneagram 8, Dr. Brad Reedy, co-founder and chief clinical officer of Finding You Therapy Programs, Together, we explore the profound impact of therapy and self-acceptance on the transformative journey of self-discovery and healing. Brad opens up about his journey as a therapist and how his work has profoundly impacted families, including my own. We dive into his flagship program, Finding You, which offers an immersive experience designed to help participants explore their family of origin and understand how their past shapes their present. One of the most powerful themes we discuss is the importance of vulnerability. Brad shares a poignant insight from his therapist: “The suicidal impulse is correct, but the mistake is thinking you have to kill the whole self. You just need to learn which part of yourself needs to die.” This profound perspective can help us all recognize that our greatest weaknesses can become our greatest assets. We also touch on the Enneagram and how understanding our core motivations can lead to deeper self-awareness and healthier relationships. Brad's candid reflections on his own struggles with vulnerability and the journey of self-acceptance are both inspiring and relatable. Whether you're familiar with the Enneagram or just starting your journey of self-discovery, this episode is a must-listen. Join us as we explore the audacity to be ourselves and learn to love our “horrible, rotten selves.” Tune in now to hear this rich conversation and discover how you can apply these insights to your own life.

Will My Child Forgive Me? Dealing With Your Child's Anger - Ep 557 by Dr. Brad Reedy

At least let's start talking about the different between control and influence in our relationships. Specifically, in our parent-child relationships, and more generally, other relationships. I believe control is outcome based and our need to control exists because we need a certain results from our children or our relationships in order to feel "good about ourselves." Detaching from the outcome is an important part of upping our game in relationships, and creating differentiation. This week I use the book The Journey of the Heroic Parent: Your Child's Struggle and the Road Home by Brad Reedy, Phd to start this topic. Please, please read this book!! And let's talk about it. Leave comments and questions at apieceofmindpodcast@gmail.com and let's have a conversation.

Dr. Brad Reedy discusses one of the most invaluable tools in building connection with others: the ability to listen and hear what another person is saying without reaction, defense, justification, or retaliation.

Dr. Brad Reedy responds to and offers insight on the recent news that has come out regarding wilderness therapy and wilderness therapy alumni experiences.

Dr. Brad Reedy covers co-parenting. Whether divorced or married, couples can help their children by following some key guidelines such as: separating their need form the child's need, not parentifying the child, and focusing on one's own growth rather than the co-parent's, among many others.

Dr. Brad Reedy answers questions about how or if parents can help their "almost adults" see the effects of their actions on the family, how to know whether to bring a child directly home after wilderness or send them to another program, whether to do a family Intensive as a final step before a child returns home from treatment, and how best to support a sober child in danger of relapse, among others.

Dr. Brad Reedy talks about what the winter season is like for Evoke students: how they stay warm and healthy, how they mark the winter holidays, and how their varied emotions about not being home for the holidays can lead to important insights.

Dr. Brad Reedy took live questions regarding a son's self-sabotage, how to "be close with" your teenager, what to do when your child is engaged in illegal activity, and self-forgiveness.

Dr. Brad Reedy discusses his habit of practicing mindfulness rather than gratitude. He shares how sometimes redirecting oneself to gratitude when one is feeling difficult feelings--looking on the bright side--can drift into toxic positivity or a denial/avoidance of uncomfortable feelings. Alternatively, when one is mindful, one can feel and manage the difficult feelings as they arrive--and then also naturally appreciate and feel grateful for life when things are going well. He also elaborates on his belief that the most important step to more contented living is self-care/self-compassion.

Dr. Brad Reedy details the immense growth and change going on in the young adult brain as well as their attendant behaviors. He then discusses Evoke's updated Young Adult program, which makes space for their growth and change employing expeditions, adventure, mindfulness, service, as well as a newly added therapeutic Intensive, among other activities.

Dr. Brad Reedy took questions about how to know when you have formed a secure attachment, how not to absorb your teen's moods, how to get in alignment with your spouse about parenting issues, and what codependency does--and doesn't--mean, among others.

Dr. Brad Reedy reviews, explains, and illustrates Evoke's Three Founding Principles: 1. Know Your Truth 2. Express Your Truth 3. Heal in Relationships

Dr. Brad Reedy answers live questions regarding what a relationship can look like with a fully adult child and how to regard the concept of boundaries as well as how to set effective ones, among others.

Dr. Brad Reedy discuses the concept of the Identified Patient. When a family focuses its efforts on saving, fixing, or helping one specific family member, that person becomes the Identified Patient. Once this person has been identified, it can absolve or in some way prevent the family from looking at their family system as a whole and each of themselves as individuals. This set-up can prevent or impede anyone in the family from doing the true growth work they need/want to do. Dr. Reedy talks about the history of this concept and how this dynamic can play out in families.

Dr. Brad Reedy took live questions. He spoke about learning how to be curious and non-judgmental in our reactions to our children, how to hold a boundary once it's been set, and the stages of a wilderness stay, among other things.

As autumn leaves drop from the trees, Dr. Brad Reedy talks about the changing seasons of our lives and how in order to grow, the biggest lesson we must learn is to let go. Tonight he specifically elucidates Key Three from the Three Keys to Enlightenment mentioned in his book, The Audacity to Be You.

Dr. Brad Reedy talks about how to handle your child turning 18 while away at treatment, i.e. meaning what to do if and when they exercise their legal ability to leave or "walk out" because they are now adults. Yet in an approach that will appeal to many more than just those in this specific circumstance, he discusses it through a lens focused on understanding and outgrowing codependency, not counting on outcomes, and setting boundaries that will reinforce your own self-care and mental health.

Dr. Brad Reedy answers questions about how to balance taking care of self and others and shedding old notions about both, drug testing your child when they are living at home, how not to micromanage a child who has recently returned home from treatment, and others.

Dr. Brad Reedy starts his podcast with the words: "If we talk about connection and intimacy, we must first talk about boundaries and individuation." What follows is a meditation on the importance of becoming a "Self," how boundaries actually *foster* intimacy, and how codependency kills it.

Dr. Brad Reedy discusses some of the ways you can know whether your therapist is right for you--or not. He also explains how to think about and approach therapy in order to get the most out of it.

Dr. Brad Reedy answers questions about how to get over the guilt and shame of seeing your child wrestle with the same difficult issues you do, how to research and choose a therapeutic boarding school, and how or if to intervene when you know your child is engaging in risky behaviors. He also supports a parent who reports an abusive therapist and addresses another who wants to know how to authentically connect with her teenage son who has a potential personality disorder.

Dr. Brad Reedy discusses the three types of therapeutic Intensives Evoke offers: Finding You, Finding Connection, and Finding Family. He elucidates Evoke's practice of Attachment-based therapy and how and why it helps. He also offers and in-depth description of each Intensive, as well as its benefits.

Dr. Brad Reedy addresses questions about what to do when you feel you've tried everything and your soon-to-be adult child rejects it all, how to proceed when your child "doesn't believe in boundaries," and finding balance between curiosity and consistency, among several others.

Dr. Brad Reedy talks about wilderness therapy and how it can be effective for struggling children and young adults--and their families. He covers how being in a therapeutic setting in the wilderness forces a digital detox, fosters grit and mindfulness, allows clients to play again, all while exposing them to positive mentoring and experiential therapy. Wilderness therapy is especially effective with resistant adolescents and allows kids to build self-esteem through tangible accomplishments. It removes the negative influences from home, allows individuation, and supports connections to things "greater than" or outside themselves like the group--and nature itself.

Dr. Brad Reedy, recently back from vacation, speaks of lessons learned during his time off, through the lens of the works of Dr. James Hollis, a Jungian psychoanalyst. One of Dr. Reedy's opening quotes from Hollis's book The Middle Passage, perfectly previews this talk: "But such is the first [half of] adulthood: full of blunders, shyness, inhibitions, mistaken assumptions, and always, the silent rolling of the tapes of childhood. If one had not set forth and made those mistakes and crashed into those walls, then one would have remained a child. Reviewing one's life from the vantage point of the second half requires understanding and forgiveness of the inevitable crime of unconsciousness."

Dr. Brad Reedy interviews public school social worker and Evoke Intensives therapist and coach, Clement Wilson.

Dr. Brad Reedy talks with Casie Fariello, co-founder of Other Parents Like Me, a subscription-based online platform designed to support young people with mental health and substance abuse challenges.

Dr. Brad Reedy discuss the book No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model by Richard Schwartz, PhD. He covers Schwartz's writings on the parts of the self, the eight C's of Internal Family Systems, and other concepts elucidated in the book. Reedy ends with key takeaways from the work that overlap with Evoke's philosophy.
