On this week's episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen explore the topic of shifting family dynamics in adulthood and the complexities that exist within this change. When we grow into adults, our family dynamics often do not grow at the same rate. Em and Jen discuss family roles from our childhood staying present in adulthood, why it's so hard for parents to see their kids as adults, shifting dynamics in a family that avoids confrontation, growing out of old family dynamics (esp. if you're the only one recognizing dysfunction), feeling younger than you are, changing sibling dynamics as parents age, gray divorce, disrupting family patterns, and so much more! Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 6:30 into their convo to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
