Owning Your Truth: Dr. Brad Reedy's Guide to Personal Growth and Parenting

The secret to discovering who we are today and how to do it is by understanding our family of origin and history. We firmly believe that the challenge of putting a campsite together with seven or eight other participants will bring up everything that's relevant: communication, problem-solving, frustration, tolerance.
Have you ever wondered how much your upbringing shapes your parenting style or personal relationships? In this episode of 'A Way Through', Jamie Edwards, the Director of Community Relations at Archway Academy, sits down with Dr. Brad Reedy to explore these very questions. Dr. Reedy, a licensed marriage and family therapist and co-owner of Evoke Therapy Programs, brings a wealth of experience to the table.
He's not just a therapist; he's an author, public speaker, and has served on various boards, making his insights particularly valuable. Dr. Reedy delves into the concept of taking responsibility for one's own truth. He explains how understanding our family history can illuminate the challenges we face in parenting and relationships today. He touches on the hero's journey, a narrative framework that helps us understand our personal growth and self-discovery. One of the standout moments is Dr.
Reedy's discussion on the myths of parenting. He argues that these myths often lead to over-identification with our children, making it difficult to set healthy boundaries. Instead, he advocates for parents to live into their own values and truths, which in turn sets a positive example for their children. Whether you're a parent, a partner, or someone on a journey of self-discovery, this episode offers practical advice and thought-provoking insights. Dr.
Reedy's approach is both compassionate and straightforward, making complex psychological concepts accessible and actionable. So, if you're interested in understanding how your past influences your present or looking for ways to improve your relationships and personal growth, this episode is a must-listen.
