Podcasts about toxic parents

In this powerful episode, Lisa A. Romano, trauma-informed life coach and codependency recovery expert, dives deep into the often-overlooked role that anger plays in the healing journey from parental narcissism and complex trauma. Growing up in a dysfunctional family can leave emotional scars that are not easily seen, but they shape how we experience relationships and view ourselves as adults. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How denial serves as a survival strategy in dysfunctional family systems and how it can keep us stuck in toxic patterns The hidden anger that emerges from growing up with one narcissistic parent and another who was passive or emotionally absent Why it's common to feel guilt or confusion when recognizing anger toward a passive parent, even when they weren't overtly harmful How anger toward both parents can fuel the codependent behaviors and emotional dysregulation that often follow complex trauma The critical step of recognizing your anger as a valid emotion in the recovery process, and how it leads to clarity and healing Why This Matters When we grow up in a home where one parent's instability wreaks havoc, and the other's passivity leaves us emotionally unprotected, we internalize survival mechanisms like hyper-independence or helplessness. These patterns affect our ability to set healthy boundaries, build trust, and create meaningful connections later in life. Recognizing anger as part of the healing process is key. It isn't about blaming anyone, but rather about understanding how these dynamics shaped your sense of worth, your self-protection mechanisms, and your relationships today.

Raising children is very difficult and no one has the right to judge someone's particular parenting style. However, some parenting mistakes are more dangerous than others and can seriously damage your child's health. This video will help you find out what actually affects a child's psyche and teach those who have toxic parents how they can deal with this issue. When raised by narcissistic parents, children suffer from slowed-down emotional development or none at all, will most likely suffer from depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder when they become adults and grow up into an adult that's either a self-saboteur or a person ready to sacrifice everything to achieve high goals. Children of toxic parents live in constant fear and apprehension. They'll grow up into teenagers forced to listen to their parents' complaints, adjust to a "complicated situation", put themselves in their parents' shoes, and help, tolerate, and console them. Toxic parents might not see anything wrong whatsoever in telling all the relatives, neighbors, and family friends that deeply sensitive information the child was pressured into disclosing. These types of parents instill an inferiority complex in their kids since they don't wanna see their child try new things and succeed. Their narcissistic self-love generates fear at the thought of their child becoming better, smarter, and more successful than they are. These parents seem to “generously” offer something that their children don't really need, but any refusal causes resentment. A grown kid starts thinking, "My parents probably just want some company and wanna feel needed." So they accept the help, thank the parents, and offer something in return. But there's no happy ending here because the parents will always remind their children of that "favor" they did for them. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bukan hanya karena kekurangan materi, melainkan karena pengalaman bersama orang tua yang bersifat toxic: terlalu kritis, penuh tuntutan, suka membandingkan, atau bahkan tidak hadir secara emosional.Dalam psikologi, hal ini berhubungan dengan konsep inner child atau istilah yang populer melalui teori John Bradshaw, yang merujuk pada bagian dalam diri kita yang menyimpan pengalaman, perasaan, dan kebutuhan masa kecil. Inner child yang terluka dapat memengaruhi pola pikir, emosi, dan hubungan kita ketika dewasa.Dari sudut pandang Psikologi Perkembangan (Erik Erikson), masa kecil adalah tahap penting pembentukan identitas. Orang tua yang toxic sering kali menghambat tugas perkembangan anak, misalnya dengan menanamkan rasa malu atau ragu-ragu pada tahap “Autonomy vs Shame and Doubt” dan “Initiative vs Guilt”. Dampaknya, anak tumbuh dengan keyakinan bahwa dirinya “tidak cukup baik.”Ingatlah: masa kecil mungkin bukan pilihan kita, tetapi proses pemulihan adalah tanggung jawab sekaligus hadiah yang bisa kita berikan untuk diri sendiri.

Josh talks about self-protection and reactivity as a response to being raised male, being forced to shut down and mask, and finding intense relief from facing the lie and harm of that path.Key Topics:Understanding yourself as a highly sensitive personSupporting boys and men to feel and express their emotionsExplaining what somatic practices areHealing from toxic parents or a dysfunctional childhoodJosh's grounded presence and emotional honesty offer an accessible invitation to anyone ready to rewrite their story or anyone dealing with a complicated and abusive past.

Many people raised by toxic parents or caregivers don't always recognize the abuse present in their upbringing. It's often not until their adult relationships begin to break apart that they become aware of the abusive behavior patterns repeating from their childhood.    In this episode, I'm joined by mental health advocate and best-selling author Josh Connolly for a powerful and honest conversation about what toxic parenting really looks like and its lasting impact. We talk about parents' refusal to take accountability, how dysfunction gets passed off as the family “norm,” and why adult children carry guilt and shame about something they were once powerless to change.    Josh discusses his use of  the word “toxic,” and how emotional abuse often flies under the radar. Josh also explains his “body first” approach to recovery, including how reconnecting with your body—and using tools like breathwork—can help regulate your nervous system and make space for emotional clarity.   We tackle the popular notion of having to forgive in order to move forward, offering our explanation as to why this is not always the case, and discuss the difference between forgiveness and acceptance .   If you've experienced an upbringing within the context of toxic parenting, and as a result, have difficulty trusting your own internal experiences, or feel guilty for setting boundaries, you'll find this episode incredibly validating.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Introduction  03:06 Breathwork and Nervous System Regulation 05:23 Understanding Empathy and Boundaries 07:55 Defining Toxic Parents 09:00 Emotional Abuse and Power Dynamics 12:00 Misdiagnosis and Appropriate Reactions 17:10 Appropriate Reactions to Dysfunctional Environments 19:27 The Issue of Forgiveness 24:01 The Dangers of Pushing Forgiveness 27:06 Realizing the Truth About Toxic Upbringings 32:05 The Importance of Being Held and Supported 35:13 Josh Connolly's Book: Purpose and Content 42:06 The Importance of Truth and Authenticity   Links Connect with Josh Connolly: https://www.instagram.com/josh_ffw/ https://www.facebook.com/joshffw https://www.tiktok.com/@josh_ffw https://twitter.com/josh_ffw https://www.youtube.com/c/JoshConnolly_FFW   Connect with Dr. Z: https://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/ https://www.zgrouptherapy.com/ https://www.instagram.com/dr.z_psychologist/ https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.z_psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@DrJaimeZuckerman   Get my FREE breathing exercise here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/newsletter Register for my on demand virtual courses here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/workshops Order my workbooks! *Find Your Calm / Find Good Habits* http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/books Shop my new Mindfully Messy hoodie here: http://www.drjaimezuckerman.com/apparel Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

How did Josh Connolly flip his script from addiction to sobriety, football violence to self-expression, and low self-worth to helping other men find emotional resilience? In this conversation, Josh shares the impact of having an alcoholic father, and why he wrote his taboo-busting book It's Them, Not You about managing difficult family relationships by prioritizing yourself. We explore how unmet childhood needs shape our sense of safety and why learning to feel and trust emotions in the body—not rationalizing them in our mind (guilty!) —helps us better connect with who we truly are.

By sharing the impact of addiction on his childhood, and his own recovery from addiction and low self-worth, he helps thousands of men lean into their emotions and find community.

Are you ready to break free from the emotional chains of childhood trauma and step into your true power?  In this podcast episode with Lisa A. Romano, we dive deep into the transformational journey of healing childhood trauma and why it's the most important work you'll ever do. Childhood trauma shapes our beliefs, our relationships, and the way we see ourselves and the world. Until we confront and heal these wounds, we may continue to live in survival mode—trapped by fear, lack, and feelings of unworthiness.

How did you grow up? Did you grow in a sea of toxicity, where parents were abusive, immature, addicted and/or emotionally or physically unavailable? What did you learn about life and about yourself from that formative period in your life? What did you learn about religion and/or about spirituality? How has that period of time impacted your spiritual experience today? Are there ways that you still struggle with spirituality because of those early experiences? Or perhaps you are unable to have spiritual experiences at all because of those early experiences? This show will be an exploration of the impact of toxic parents on spirituality. Don't miss it.

Toxic parenting is so much more than a buzzphrase.

“What if my parents aren't deserving of honor?” “You don't know what they did to me!” You're right. We don't know your exact story and we're not claiming to. The truth is our parents will not always be deserving of honor. And yet the truth is we're called to honor them anyway. In this episode we publicly acknowledge the mistakes that we've made regarding honoring our own parents and what honoring them can look like practically speaking. There's a promise attached to this biblical mandate and our God always keeps His promises. When the world screams “cut them off!” and “never speak to them again!” God's word says “honor them” and “pray for them”. We pray this episode is an encouragement and a reminder that the redeeming grace of God is truly our only hope.

Are you wondering if you have toxic parents? Or if you were raised by a toxic parent? Unfortunately, toxic parents may not realize their mistakes until the mistakes are too late. Regardless, whether or not a parent is purposely being toxic, there are several behaviors that can cause an emotional trauma later on. Do you think you might have a toxic mom or a toxic dad? Then this video is for you. Do note, not all parents are perfect, but your parents will still try their best and want to be the best for you if they can.

In this episode, learn about why a narcissist gets worse and not better as they age. Whether you are referring to a narcissistic spouse, parent, sibling or friend, narcissists are those who rely on their looks, sexuality, and strength to control and maintain power over others. As narcissists age, they become angrier and more intolerable. Listen in as Lisa A. Romano, Breakthrough Life Coach and author of The Road Back to Me, breaks down what you need to know to prepare yourself as the narcissist you know begins to grow older.  Are you ready to heal from toxic family dynamics and to learn how to finally put yourself first?

As the child of a narcissistic mother, your subconscious mind has been impressed with concepts, beliefs, and ideas that although helped you survive as a child, may work against your spiritual, mental, and emotional unfolding today. Being raised by a narcissistic mother poses significant risks to one's perception of self, which can taint every area of one's life. Children of narcissistic mothers struggle to honor, love, and respect themselves. They can become stuck in loops of self-sabotaging thinking, feeling, and behaving, leading them to codependent one-way relationships. Depression, anxiety, low self-worth, and a lack of self are just a few of the consequences of being raised by a narcissistic mother. If you have been raised in a toxic family system, if you are the adult child of narcissistic parents, or if you know of an adult child who has come from a dysfunctional childhood home, this episode will shed light on the struggles these adult children face. The good news is, as you awaken and identify toxic family issues, you can liberate yourself from the subconscious patterns, beliefs, and habitual thinking and behaving they have caused. Lisa A. Romano's life is proof that through an elevation of consciousness, it is possible to reclaim authority in your life, as are the thousands of adult children she has helped awaken and break free of the chains of the past.
