Adam Lane Smith & Sarah Dawn Moore
About this episode

🎙️ In this raw and honest episode, Adam Lane Smith, the attachment specialist, and Andrey Korikov, co-founder of Veritas Creative Media, team up with renowned radically honest psychotherapist Whitney Goodman to explore the complex world of dysfunctional families.

 

They delve deep into the heart of toxic positivity, generational trauma, and the impact of permissive and authoritarian parenting styles. Whitney shares her unique perspective on how these dynamics can shape our relationships, careers, and overall well-being.

 

✨ Key Highlights You Can’t Miss ✨:

👉 How toxic positivity can mask deeper issues and hinder emotional growth

👉 Strategies for healing and breaking free from generational trauma. 

👉 How childhood experiences shape our attachment patterns.

👉 How unresolved past trauma, lack of boundaries, or unaddressed grievances impact parent-child relationships. 

👉 The evolving role of therapy and its limitations in addressing modern issues because of one-size-fits-all solutions.

👉 Predictions about therapy's future role

 

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the impact of family dynamics, childhood experiences, emotional suppression, and wants to create healthier relationships. 🎧
