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!

Sermon preached by Pastor Adam Copenhaver on Sunday, February 1, 2026.

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?

An overview of Mark 3

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 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!

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

The source provides excerpts from a sermon that offers a detailed exegetical analysis of the biblical account of Noah's drunkenness and the actions of his sons (Genesis 9:18-29). The speaker discusses the imperfect nature of Noah and the parallels between this story and the fall of Adam, noting that both involve nakedness, fruit/vine, and a curse. A significant portion of the sermon addresses the historical misuse of this passage to justify the enslavement and mistreatment of people of African descent, condemning this interpretation as horrible theology. Ultimately, the message emphasizes that all families are dysfunctional and that salvation and grace in Jesus Christ are necessary for everyone, regardless of heritage or personal virtue.Support the showThanks for listening!

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.

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.

We are continuing the conversation around adult children of dysfunctional families, and how those unhealthy and dysfunctional roles that we can develop can move toward healing and a new healthy future. In this episode, Rodney Holmstrom, global field director of CR, will walk us through part two of how Celebrate Recovery can ultimately create a safe space, through Jesus and biblical truth, and a structure process to understand those old dysfunctional labels and ultimately replace them with our true identity in Christ.

Send us a textFamily relationships can be both our greatest joy and deepest pain, as illustrated in the story of Jacob and Esau. Their family was marked by parental favoritism, with Isaac loving Esau for his hunting skills and Rebekah favoring Jacob. This favoritism led to destructive patterns: Jacob's manipulation in trading stew for Esau's birthright and later deceiving his father for the blessing, and Esau's impulsivity and rage. These cycles of dysfunction mirror our own family struggles today. Yet God's grace can and does work through broken families.This message was preached at Centerpointe Community Church by Pastor Mike Wrigglesworth on Sunday, August 3rd, 2025Support the show

Unhealthy families have similar dynamics regardless of what their specific problems are. They are complicated and hard to untangle. There are common unspoken rules that everyone knows they have to abide by, even though doing so ensures that the dysfunctional drama continues.  Yet there is a way to change dysfunctional family rules to healthy rules and decrease the family drama. You may not be able to do it with everyone, but you can start with one dysfunctional relationship and make healthy relationship changes by how you act and react.  If you want to change dysfunctional family rules to healthy rules, watch this video to find out how.  #dysfunctionalfamily  #healthyrelationship #dysfunctionalrelationship #familydrama     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/2aJ0dcB6of0

In Mark 6 we get a look at the life of King Herod and his actions of what he did to John the Baptist. Herod's life was marked by family dysfunction and it showed in how he had John the Baptist beheaded.

Often when we walk into recovery, we experience revelations on how dysfunctional our family system was growing up. Growing up in these family systems we can take on dysfunctional roles that can be helpful to understand why we do what we do, but ultimately move us to do something different in health.
