A parent’s role is to guide, protect, and support their child, not the other way around. Children should not be burdened with the responsibility of fulfilling their parents’ needs or emotions.

When someone feels their needs are consistently ignored, dismissed, or not met, it can lead to feelings of bitterness, anger, and resentment.
It’s an invitation inward to gently ask yourself what do you need?
Things like emotional support, validation, connection, love.

Nervous system regulation can be helpful but it doesn’t heal trauma. Trauma is much more complex cold plunging or box breathing.

If we can think of younger parts of us holding these patterns and responses it can feel a little more manageable, maybe even a little less judgmental and shaming.
It’s only a part! Not all of us. We can connect to that part easier than feeling consumed and overwhelmed by it. ❤️

Parents are responsible for nurturing sibling relationships not pitting siblings against each other!

Helping siblings with conflict by really spending the time with them to allow each expression of feelings, talking things out and coming up with solutions using empathy.

Pitting kids against each other by using competition, pointing out perceived flaws, comparing, taking sides, favoritism does not create healthy relationships.

In my work it’s often the case for siblings to not really be close. I often hear similar stories in dysfunctional families that didn’t allow siblings to work out issues in a healthy way but created so much separation they never had a chance. That’s sad. 😌

Overreaction is an unmet need. Not just now but from the past. A lifetime of unmet needs.

I don’t even like to use the word codependent. It feels so black and white. Codependency is so nuanced and is actually not that easy to recognize.
Someone is usually over functioning in the relationship though. I get curious about their attachment trauma because that’s where codependency was born.
What do you think about the word codependent? 👇

The risk of change or doing something new can feel really scary for the traumatized parts of us that show up and clamp down.
That’s why it’s so important to acknowledge these younger parts instead of pushing through.

We want connection yet our attachment wounds have us doing everything but connecting in relationships.
Conflict is normal, healthy and a part of relating. We most likely didn’t get the manual on this from our parents. Conflict was something to fear.
How does this impact your relationship?
