I was recently a guest on Joree’s podcast and within the first few minutes of that conversation I knew I had to ask her to join us here/ I’m so glad she said YES. This is a fascinating and important conversation into the importance of recognizing all the dynamics at play with multiple generations of our families.
Listen in to hear Joree share:

How she’s navigating this season of her teen daughters getting ready to leave home and the evolving framework of her family shifting 

The utter joy and devastation of your children growing up

How to recognize transgenerational patterns of over-enmeshment with your family and how to start to build healthier boundaries

How her mom’s family trauma led to transgenerational over-enmeshment and codependency - which was necessary for survival at one time, but dysfunctional over the course of generations

How she recognized her patterns of needing to create safety and security in order to “be happy”

Why she had the courage to get divorced

How she shifted the way she saw her entire world through adopting a mindfulness practice
