The dysfunctional family dynamics were caused by my toxic marriage. My husband insisted nothing was wrong except my reaction, so he refused to look at his behavior. I tried everything to get him to change: praying, nagging, lecturing, therapy (for me), adjusting, pleasing, and more. Nothing worked and the harder I tried, the more out of control I became. I was the one the neighbors heard yelling. I was the one in support groups and marriage counseling. I was the losing my temper. I was the one getting physically sick. I was the one who looked unhappy and miserable. I was the one who looked crazy, not him. And it isn't just toxic marriages, but all toxic relationships where this can happen. If this sounds like you, you need to watch this video to find out how to stop looking like the crazy one. I figured it out and so can you. Stop changing the other person, change yourself instead. #dysfunctionalfamilies #toxicmarriage #dysfunctionalfamily #changeyourself #toxicrelationships #christianrelationshipadvice Karla Downing's passion is to see individuals, marriages, and families set free from dysfunction, scriptural misunderstanding, and emotional pain personally and relationally.

What if the most powerful growth strategy in hospice and primary care had nothing to do with your clinical protocols, your technology stack, or your marketing budget — and everything to do with who shows up, and how often? In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Scott Middleton — founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health — unpacks the real-world lessons shaping how your Health is staffing, growing, and rebuilding trust as it integrates the newly merged TCPA and Providence Care organizations. Scott spent the week in the field — Monroe, Georgia; Beaufort, South Carolina; Atlanta and beyond — sitting in care team meetings, talking to nurses, watching exercise classes, and rethinking everything from staffing ratios to personality matching. What he found is both a warning and a blueprint. In this episode: Why minor service failures — a nurse who didn't show up once — can cost you an entire facility relationship, and what it actually takes to earn it back The strategic case for pulling a nurse off a shared caseload and planting her full-time in a single building — even when the numbers don't fully justify it yet The story of a nurse so embedded in one facility that an administrator told Your Health: "I will cut you if you move her" How DISC personality profiles should determine which staff member walks into which building — and why getting it wrong creates friction that kills referrals Why the best talent you'll ever hire is already living in the community you serve — and why your recruiters will never find them on Indeed The centralize-then-decentralize model Your Health deploys every time it launches something new — and why it's the only way to scale without losing quality If you lead a care team, run a hospice program, manage a building, or are trying to grow in any direction in healthcare right now — this episode is your field guide. www.YourHealth.Org

Dr. Laura welcomes author, speaker, breathwork coach, and community advocate Josh Connolly to Where Work Meets Life™ for a conversation about the parallels between toxic family systems and toxic workplaces. Josh draws on his own experience growing up with an alcoholic father and later overcoming addiction himself to share how healing started for him. It was truth, a safe community, and reconnecting with self that combined for his renewal. Together, he and Dr. Laura explore how toxic parents and toxic bosses can leave similar emotional wounds that include self-doubt, anxiety, people pleasing, and loss of identity. They discuss boundaries and the importance of reclaiming personal power after unhealthy work or family relationships. Josh explains how dysfunctional family roles often mirror workplace dynamics. Toxic leaders create fear, division, and favoritism that silence curiosity and authenticity, much as a toxic family does. Dr. Laura connects these insights to her work helping clients recover from toxic bosses and rebuild confidence after workplace trauma. The episode highlights the importance of emotional recovery, somatic practices like breathwork, and supportive human connection in leaving behind toxicity. Dr. Laura offers listeners validation and practical hope for healing from toxic relationships both at home and at work. “The best parent, similar to a best leader, is not one who doesn't make any mistakes, but is one that is very approachable. To be able to be open to their own mistakes and open to having conversations, looking for accountability, finding responsibility, and being able to work collaboratively to find a solution.” - Josh Connolly About Josh Connolly: Josh Connolly, an Amazon bestselling author, has taken the mental health world by storm with his groundbreaking book, "It's Them, Not You: How to Break Free from Toxic Parents and Reclaim Your Story." This transformative guide provides readers with essential tools and guided breathwork sessions to overcome toxic family dynamics and heal from past trauma. Renowned as one of the UK's top mental health advocates, Josh connects with nearly half a million followers, delivering powerful insights and strategies. His workshops, ranging from local schools to some of the biggest brands in the world, empower individuals to connect deeply with their emotions and intuition.

Family Dysfunction is Complicated and Messy. Only God can heal it.Preached June 21, 2026Pastor Aaron Frasier
Trinity grew up in a family affected by rage, addiction, abuse and mental illness, all untreated. The children carried dysfunctional attitudes and behaviours into their adult lives, with each family member, including Trinity, locked into their own patterns of isolation and individual illness. Trinity married an alcoholic and, a few years ago, at the end of her rope, found Al-Anon. Next she found another fellowship, Adult Children of Alcoholics and Dysfunctional Families and finally understood the family system of which she was a part. 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.auHelp 3CR raise the $300,000 it needs to continue broadcasting and support the Living Free show here: https://www.3cr.org.au/donate#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.auFind an Adult Children and dysfunctional Families here:https://adultchildren.org/meeting-search/ 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

Passage: Genesis 37:1-13 Series: Joseph: Where is God in a messed up world?
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.

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.

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. The story of the Bluth Family, Michel, GOB, Lindsey, and Buster, their parents Lucille and George, and their kids George Michael and Maeby. A tale of wealth and loss, trust and mistrust, about land and sea. But don't take my, Ron Howard's, word on it listen to the boys. It'll be fun. So grab some 3d Doritos, some Mountain Dew Livewire and fire up The Pirate Bay. Let's watching some Arrested Development how it was meant to be seen. On a tiny buffering screen. Hugs and Kisses, Ron Howard. The director. Arrested Development stars Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Portia Di Rossi, Jessica Walter, David Cross, Alia Shawkat, Michael Cera, Tony Hale, and Jeffrey Tambor. Hosts:Geoff KerbisMax SingerRich Inman
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 friction and disagreement that isn't easy to navigate. There are a myriad of problems. One of those is when you don't like your child's partner. There are many reasons that it might be that way. Yet, how you react to this situation is similar regardless of the reasons. There are things you can do that will damage your relationship and cause more relationship problems. There are things you can do that will improve your relationship now and in the future.

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.

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.

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.
