Dealing with Toxic Families Ep. 89

Toxic families are difficult enough to be raised in. For outsiders, being brought in via dating, marriage, friendships, the family dynamic, and what it creates in adult children can be highly confusing to people raised in healthier homes.   This episode is about toxic clan family dynamics, why they behave the way they do, how confusing it is, and why understanding their foundation of secrets and lies can help depersonalize the attacks, barbs, and ostracizing you if you're pushed out.   Related articles and videos to expand on this episode   YouTube Channel for The Audacious Life & Audacious Mamas  https://www.youtube.com/c/TheAudaciousLifePodcast   Dysfunctional Family Dynamics: Dont Talk, Dont Trust, Dont Feel https://psychcentral.com/blog/imperfect/2018/06/dysfunctional-family-dynamics-dont-talk-dont-trust-dont-feel#You-feel-unimportant-and-unworthy   Award-Winning Refresher and Explanation of Gaslighting (superb film!)
