Andrea's podcast, 'Adult Child', takes a heartfelt dive into the complexities of reparenting and goal setting. In this episode, Andrea and her guests share raw, unfiltered stories that many will find all too familiar. Growing up in an alcoholic or dysfunctional family leaves scars, but this episode is about finding the tools to heal those wounds. Andrea introduces listeners to the concept of reparenting—essentially becoming the nurturing parent you never had.
This practice is about self-compassion and giving yourself the care and understanding that were missing in your childhood. The episode also tackles the often daunting task of setting goals. For many who grew up in chaotic environments, planning for the future can feel like an impossible dream. Andrea and her guests break down this process, making it approachable and less intimidating. They discuss how childhood experiences shape our beliefs and behaviors around goal-setting, offering practical advice on overcoming these barriers.
The highlight of this episode is the sense of community it fosters. Andrea shares moments from her 'shit show' support group, where members find solace and strength in knowing they are not alone. These snippets are a reminder that healing is not a solitary journey but one best traveled with others who understand your struggles. Whether you're dealing with codependency, complex trauma, or toxic shame, this episode offers a beacon of hope and practical steps towards recovery.
