Unmasking Family Roles in Addictive Homes: Ronni and Jennie’s Insights

People can stop drinking, you can leave a family with an addiction problem, but unless you consciously seek recovery, recovering your spirit, recovering who you are, who you were meant to be when it was, you didn't even know who you were meant to be when it's all been derailed by these roles that you were handed and forced to play.
Have you ever wondered why children from homes with addiction often end up in predictable roles? In this episode, Ronni and Jennie dive into the unsettling dynamics of families plagued by addiction. They break down how denial, fear, and isolation shape these households, forcing kids into roles like the scapegoat or the mascot. These roles aren't just labels—they're survival mechanisms that can derail a child's sense of self and linger into adulthood.
Ronni and Jennie share their own stories, shedding light on how they navigated these turbulent waters and found their way to healing. They discuss the importance of seeking recovery, not just for the person with the addiction but for everyone involved. Without conscious effort to heal, you might never discover who you were truly meant to be, buried under the roles you were forced to play.
The sisters' candid reflections offer hope and practical advice for anyone trapped in similar cycles. Whether you're dealing with your own struggles or supporting someone else, this episode is a must-listen. It’s a heartfelt conversation that mixes personal anecdotes with broader insights, all aimed at helping you understand and break free from these harmful patterns.
