DR. HENRY CLOUD
About this episode

Dr. Cloud explores emotional regulation and the skill of "right-sizing" your responses to life events - learning when you're overreacting to minor problems or minimizing serious issues. He answers a written question about dealing with a narcissistic sister who escalates and spreads lies when ignored, then takes calls from a single father rebuilding after leaving ministry and facing unemployment, and a woman questioning whether to marry her fiancé after discovering he lied about contact with an ex-girlfriend. Dr. Cloud provides practical advice on building life structure during transitions and evaluating trustworthiness through behavior patterns rather than promises.

Relationships shouldn't leave you feeling anxious or exhausted. If you've struggled to deal with someone else’s toxic behaviors, Dr. Henry Cloud wants to help you find clarity and healing. Dr. Cloud’s free resource, "10 Strategies for Dealing with Toxic People," offers practical, compassionate guidance on recognizing unsafe people, handling manipulative behaviors, and setting firm, loving boundaries.
