Podcasts about dysfunctional families

When David found himelf sick and lying on the floor of his garage, he decided to seek treatment for the drinking that had kept him isolated from his family. During his time in rehab a counsellor asked him three questions that changed his life. He knew then that he was an alcoholic and committed himself to recovery. He has not had a drink since. David has found over his years of recovery that attending Al-Anon and ACA meetings has been an important part of his understand of himself and the nature of trauma and addiction.If you think that Al-Anon  could help you cope with someone else's problem drinking then you can phone 1300 252 666 or go to their website al-anon.org.auShow your support for the Living Free show and join the celebration of 3CRs's 50th Birthday show by donating to our radiothon here:https://www.givenow.com.au/cr/living-free-2026-radiothon#Alcoholism #Al-Anon #RecoveryIf you would like more information about Alcoholics Anonymous, they can be contacted on 1300 222 222 or go online at aa.org.au The Living Free show may involve discussion of topics such as suicide, mental illness, self-harm and family violence.

 Family relationships can be some of the most meaningful and painful relationships in our lives. In this message, Pastor Mark explores what the Bible really means when it says to “honor your father and mother,” especially when family relationships are emotionally complicated, unhealthy, or deeply painful. Through the example of Jesus, this sermon examines boundaries, emotional health, forgiveness, guilt, and the challenge of staying loving without losing yourself.

What if the person you fall for isn't just a choice, but a pattern?Most people think love is about chemistry, attraction, or finding “the one.” But according to today's guest, the heart alone is not enough.If you come from a divorced or dysfunctional family, your wounds can shape who you trust, who you're attracted to, and what feels “normal” in a relationship. Without realizing it, you might be drawn to someone familiar, not because they're good for you, but because they feel like the past.In this episode, we explore how to build love with both your heart and your head. We talk about repetition compulsion, red flags, rushing trust or physical intimacy, and how to tell whether someone is actually capable of healthy love.My guest is Dr. John Van Epp, relationship expert, counselor, and author of How to Avoid Falling in Love with a Jerk.If you've ever wondered, “Why am I attracted to people who aren't good for me?” or “How do I avoid repeating my parents' marriage?” this episode is for you.Get our bookCheck other free resources:How to Avoid Falling in Love with a Jerk by Dr. John Van Epp:Love ThinksHead Meets Heart course:Shownotes

Emotional sobriety is a state of emotional balance and self-awareness. According to Samantha Jo and Spencer, emotional sobriety involves intentional living, gratitude, self-love, and setting healthy boundaries. Their conversation explores the nuances of this journey, drawing connections from literature and personal experiences, both in Al-Anon and ACA (Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families).

Have you been receiving Christian marriage and relationship advice from counselors, pastors, family, and friends that you are fifty percent responsible for your part in the relationship problems? Have you been told just to give 100% of everything you can and let God deal with the other person? Or maybe that it takes two to fight? Or even if your spouse doesn't do their part that you have to do yours? Hearing those responses is frustrating, dismissive, and even infuriating when you are stuck in a relationship with someone in your dysfunctional family who is doing things that hurt you and your children. They make you feel hopeless when you know you have already tried everything you can, and it isn't working. Watch this video to find out why those responses are incorrect. It will be empowering #relationshipproblems #dysfunctionalfamilies #christianrelationshipadvice #christianmarriageadvice Karla Downing's passion is to see individuals, marriages, and families set free from dysfunction, scriptural misunderstanding, and emotional pain personally and relationally.

This awesome book held my attention in a way that few do. It is a riveting discussion of Stefan's enmeshment with his mom that manifested in homeschooling which was very isolating but allowed his mother to remain in his babyhood forever.

Most of us are taught that family is everything but what happens when the ones who should love and protect you are the source of stress, pain, and dysfunction? If you've ever felt the weight of silence, betrayal, or the loneliness of being the black sheep, this episode hits home. Ash breaks down the brutal truths about dysfunctional families, and shares how recognizing the patterns is the first step toward healing even if it means standing alone.

In dysfunctional families, people do a lot of things that are unhealthy and destructive. Watching them causes anxiety because of the harm they can do to themselves, you, others, and the relationship. The obsession with changing them can be all-consuming if left unchecked. It can even make you physically and emotionally sick. The solution is to manage anxiety over others' choices. There are things you can do that will make it easier. Your life doesn't have to be ruled by things outside your control, even when that is your dysfunctional family.  Learning how to manage anxiety over others' choices will change your life by changing yourself.

00:00 Truly End the Cycle  05:48 Shame Ruined my life  07:20 Frequency and Vibration of Shame  12:27 Shame In Energetic Field 21:27 Dissolve Shame Practice  23:50 It Ends With ME Invitation    Many cycle-breakers try everything:  Avoiding relationships.  Endless solo healing.  Over-functioning.  Manifesting love or money but not being able to hold it.  And the reason the cycle doesn't fully end? Shame.  Shame is absorbed in narcissistic family systems, passed down through generations, and stored in the energetic field.  When shame is your dominant frequency, you can't hold love, safety, expansion, or healthy relationships — no matter how much “work” you've done.  In this podcast, I share the one thing that actually breaks the cycle — dissolving shame at the root.  you'll learn: 1. Why shame is the lowest frequency in the energetic field  2. Why shame is not who you are — and never was  3. How narcissistic family systems unconsciously keep shame alive through gaslighting and invalidation  4. A simple but powerful practice you can use today to stop absorbing shame and start dissolving it    This is Part 1 of a two-part series. Today we explore why dissolving shame is essential.    In the next podcast I'll show you how to fully end the cycle of shame — practically and energetically. Ready to stop repeating the pattern? This is the work we do inside my community IT ENDS WITH ME — a space for cycle-breakers healing shame in real relationship, not isolation. Inside the community we focus on: Healing the nervous system after emotional abuse Inner child healing and re-parenting Rewiring survival-based beliefs Creating love, safety, success, and family from the heart — not trauma patterns Join here :  

Introduction“A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.” — Irina Dunn, 1970I heard about the movement of decentering men on TikTok. With zero expectations, I decided to try it out for a month. It was October 2025. I was sick of dating apps and about to publish my second book. I'd been single for three years, but this was something different. I'm here to tell you everything about it and share all the reasons why I'm never going back.I wrote this article to give us, women, a blueprint for how to be the main character in our own lives. Our mothers and grandmothers couldn't teach us this; they depended on men (financially) to survive, and had to center them accordingly. This article is not about hating men; it's about unlearning the ways that the patriarchy has trained us to prioritize making men happy. This pressure comes just as much from the women in our lives (aunties, influencers, our mother), as from men. After all, it was my mother who let my brother get away with never doing the dishes after dinner.Starting this process for the first time scared me. I was worried that if I stopped trying to date men, I was giving up on my dream of becoming a mother. Yet as I began to decenter men, I realized that my idea of motherhood was purely a fantasy. Facing the reality of motherhood, those statistics scared me much more. In this article, I will cover everything I've learned from the internet, economists, and my own experience, so that you can decide whether decentering men and trying it for a month to start is right for you. Let's begin!

Today's episode is part one of a two-part series on dysfunctional families and ADHD.I'm sharing this from a very real place. The last few weeks have been heavy with extended family drama, and when things feel overwhelming, I name it and bring it into the light. As someone writing a book on healthy relationships for adults with ADHD, I want you to know I come by this work honestly.When I look at my own family tree, I see generations shaped by abuse, addiction, emotional neglect, and unaddressed mental health struggles. I refuse to despise my lineage—but I also refuse to continue these patterns. It stops with me.If you have ADHD, there's a strong chance your family system shaped how safe it feels to have needs, set boundaries, and regulate emotions. This episode isn't about blame or shame—it's about clarity.You'll learn:Why dysfunction can exist even when there was loveHow emotional neglect often goes unnoticedWhy guilt shows up when you set boundaries10 common signs of a dysfunctional family systemAwareness is how cycles are interrupted. In Part Two, we'll explore what healthy families actually look like and how to move toward that—without burning it all down.Episode Resources: Toxic Family Test Patrick Teahan YouTubeWatch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?

Ron Howard wrote this is episode description! Thanks Ron!In the pirate studios Geoff, Mike, and Rich sat to discuss their thoughts on the 2003 sitcom Arrested Development.

As we start our journey through the life of Joseph, we see early on that he grew in a wildly dysfunctional family. Yet, God was raising him up to help save the lives of millions of people.

Dysfunctional families have lots of relationship problems. One of the big ones is when your wife doesn't like your family. Whether it is one or both of your parents, your siblings, or anyone else, it causes a huge amount of stress and subsequent landmines you have to navigate as a husband.  Not only is your wife unhappy, you know your family isn't happy. You are in the middle and need help to navigate in a healthy way that doesn't unnecessarily damage your marriage and cause more problems for you and your kids. But you also want to consider your family's needs, especially when it involves your parents. There's one more consideration and that is you. You matter too and yet, it is easy to lose sight of that.  While this video can't answer all your questions and can't address every scenario, it focuses on the similarities and offers principles you can keep in mind, including biblical ones. It also helps you to view the problem in a larger context because it is easy to get lost in the details of the latest disagreement.    You need this Christian marriage advice now, even if you have already made some mistakes. Watch this video when your wife doesn't like your family. You will be glad you did. #dysfunctional  #dysfunctionalrelationship  #wifeandhusbandrelationship #relationshipproblems #christianmarriageadvice   Website: https://www.changemyrelationship.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMyRelationship YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@changemyrelationship Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/zsq9Zb6q7ik

Send us a textIn today's episode, we're talking about something a lot of us grew up with but never really learned how to navigate: dysfunctional family dynamics and the boundaries we need to stay sane. If you've ever felt like the “therapist” of your family, the fixer, the responsible one, or the one who keeps the peace… this episode is for you. I'm sharing the patterns I grew up around, the realizations I had as an adult, and the simple things that helped me create space, protect my peace, and stop carrying what isn't mine. We're talking taking space without guilt, learning to say no, stopping the fixer role, accepting people as they are, and choosing relationships that feel healthy even if that means building your own version of family.This episode is gentle, honest, and a reminder that you're allowed to grow in ways your family may never understand.I hope it helps you feel less alone and a little lighter.Instagram@veronicacamposramos_Tiktok@veronicaramospodcastSnapchatvrverooBusiness contactveronicacampos600 @gmail.com ​

Message us here!Holiday gatherings promise connection, but so many of us walk in bracing for old patterns: the comment that lands like a dart, the sibling rivalry that never grew up, the invisible work of keeping the peace. In this episode, I delve into  why this season can feel so raw and how to survive it when your family reunions don't resemble a Hallmark card.I also talk about this year's surge in anxiety and grief, the rise in estrangement, and the isolation that lingers after the holiday lights come down in January. This time might be stressful under normal circumstances, but it's a whole other thing when you have dysfunctional or even "toxic" family.If you're stuck in old unhealthy patterns with your family, you might not realize how much holding onto a "healing fantasy" is keeping you trapped. I unpack the concept of a “healing fantasy,” that deep, often hidden wish that a parent will finally see you, a sibling will get help, or conflict will stop for good. Then I suggest some practical tools from DBT that will get you focused on what really matters to you this holiday season.Support the showIf you're navigating someone's mental health or emotional issues, join KulaMind, our community and support platform.

If family gatherings leave you feeling drained or like you're reverting to an old version of yourself, you're not alone. EMDR therapist and yoga teacher, Abby Albright, returns to discuss the invisible rules governing dysfunctional family systems and how they intensify during the holidays.We explore six categories of unspoken family rules: emotional (don't feel, don't be sad), need-based (don't need anything), relational (don't rock the boat, don't outshine anyone), role-based, loyalty (protect the family image), and safety rules. These aren't written anywhere, but they live in our bodies and shape how we show up.Abby shares how these patterns create physical tension, why breaking invisible rules feels scary, and practical ways to find choice within challenging family dynamics. We talk about being a pattern breaker and giving yourself permission to show up differently, even in small ways.What You'll Learn:How to recognize the six types of invisible family rulesWhy family gossip reinforces dysfunctional patternsThe gap between family image and realitySmall ways to practice choice during difficult gatheringsWhen to lean into curiosity vs. contain awarenessCheck out Abby's Therapeutic Yoga offerings hereFor more on dysfunctional family dynamics around the holidays, tune into:Family Dysfunction: What It Is and What To Do With ItDysfunctional Family Dynamics & The HolidaysThanks for listening to The Complex Trauma Podcast!

In this episode, Patty and the crew dive deep into the age-old question:“Do you let dysfunctional family behavior slide for the season… or call it out?” From the aunt who always starts drama, to the cousin who brings an unexpected plus-one, to the family member who loves to revisit old wounds between bites of mac & cheese.

Raising children in dysfunctional families is difficult because you know they are being impacted by the chaos. You can't make everything okay for them, but you can help them. One of the things you can do is to teach your children to detach from the dysfunction. Detaching with love is a coping skill to help them avoid taking things personally. If you use it, you know how powerful it is. Watch this video to learn how to teach your children to detach in dysfunctional families. #detachwithlove #dysfunctionalfamilies #parentingadvice   Website: https://www.changemyrelationship.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMyRelationship YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@changemyrelationship Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/WNKQ2zrQzwk

Do you ever feel stuck in patterns you swore you'd never repeat? Whether it's anger, anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing — these generational cycles can feel impossible to break. In this episode, I dive deeper into the spiritual and emotional roots of these patterns and what the Bible actually says about generational sin. I'll show you how these cycles are often passed down, not through mystical curses, but through unhealed wounds and learned behaviors. You'll hear powerful truths that can help you step out of shame, invite God into your pain, and begin writing a new story for your life, marriage, motherhood, and legacy. If you long to break free and walk in healing — this is your episode. love, Brittany    Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama? Sign Up for the Pain to Peace Academy HERE.

Motherkind Moment is your place for calm and connection and a shift in perspective before the week ahead.  This week's Moment is with Julia Samuel. In this conversation, we discuss a subject that's often difficult to talk about: what happens when our family is dysfunctional.  We cover how to recognise if we're operating in that environment. And how do we know when it's time to set boundaries, or even take the painful step of cutting contact altogether? Julia shares her perspective on what truly defines a dysfunctional family, the emotional toll it can take, and the complexity of navigating those relationships. She reminds us that there's no simple formula, every situation is unique, but that protecting our emotional and mental well-being sometimes means making tough, heartbreaking choices.

Research has long shown that child abuse and neglect can and often do lead to a wide range of negative effects on a person's life, including mental, physical, and behavioral problems. This kind of treatment during childhood causes stress that alters the way the child's brain develops, affects gene expression, and changes the body's stress response system. Kate Russell is the author of three memoirs about her life, describing her painful experiences in detail, from living with a schizoaffective sister to suffering addiction and subsequently recovering. Her most recent book, Ironing Out My Life: Child Abuse and How It Affected Everything Thereafter, is the third in the series and tells the story of her parents' upbringing, then hers, and the impact their abusive behavior had on her life.Kate is a strong, intelligent, highly resilient survivor, and it was my honor to speak with her for this episode. Links related to this episode:Kate Russell's Amazon author page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0878ZJK7Q Portrait of a Dysfunctional Family series: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DPY4BFCYDown the Rabbit Hole: A Memoir of Abuse, Addiction, and Recovery (first book): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08785R8S6Voicemails from My Sister: Stories of a Schizoaffective Sibling (second book): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B099Y8HF5QIroning Out My Life: Child Abuse and How It Affected Everything Thereafter (third book): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DPM92KW9 Cover photo by Zhivko Minkov on Unsplash.Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com. By supporting me on Patreon, you'll also access rewards, including a shout-out by name on the podcast and exclusive rewards.
