Ep.5 – Secret Families, Problem Families
Loving Parent Podcast
This episode is published raw and unedited. I hope the stumbles and pauses are not too distracting. Due to technical issues, posting Richard and Brita Part 2 is delayed.
Families. Healthy or unhealthy? Functional or dysfunctional? Secret or Problem? In this episode, I’ll explain the way I look at families and how the people in them can change and grow.
Additional Episodes:
Ep.10 – Self-Esteem
In recording this episode about Self-Esteem, I talk quite a bit about positive affirmations. There are many books about affirmations you can read, including mine and Self-Esteem, A Family Affair by Jeanne Illsley Clark. Both have affirmations geared to the developmental stages of childhood. I suggest you pick a few you like and memorize them.
Ep.9 – Christy – Part 2
In Part 2 of her interview, Christy shares with us the tools she’s found which contribute to her continued recovery and growth.
Christy mentions a book I wrote 30 years ago. It’s now back to its original title, “Secret Families-Problem Families.” I have a couple of cases, and am trying to figure out how best to get everyone who wants one a copy.
Ep.8 – Christy – Part 1
Meet Christy, a woman with long term addiction recovery, who has recently dived into adult child recovery. In this episode, we’ll hear about her family of origin, as well as the stories of some of the traumas in her life.
