Product Information

Kate: Yes, that’s right. I imagine the Canadian version would just be like a deep, awkward politeness, like just a small wave if you happen to be. Kate: That is so true. Thinking through someone else’s brain is such a wonderful way to know someone. And you are someone with so many rich categories for thinking about the bigger stories that we carry. This new book you have is so wonderful and challenging and motivating and sort of horrifying because it. Well, is it it pushes me to think beyond therapy as a kind of solo act. Like, let me tell you about my story and whatever I think of everyone else. But your book looks not just at individuals, but families. And it made me imagine people as a web. Is that a is that a good metaphor or how do you imagine it?

Julia mentions the Winnicott Term and the Good Enough Parent , a term coined by the British pediatrician and psychoanalyst D. W. Winnicott. Kate also spoke about this idea of being a Good Enough Parent with Don Rosenstein and Justin Yopp in an episode called “The Magic of We”. Julia points out that “ honesty shines a light, right? And lights are illuminating a lights spring glow. And they bring people. And that’s what you do. You gather because of your honesty and your humility with your honesty, to say hard things and let yourself feel hard things. Other people can then face their own and look at their own and they see you can see how you do.” In what ways did this podcast help you shine a light on your own childhood and family story? How can you share that light with others? Kim Hawley's family at her baptism in 1990. Before you start documenting, think about what you want to accomplish — what period of time or story do you want to learn about — and who you want to tell the story?One aspect of the book that I truly appreciated was the closing paragraphs of each chapter. I liked that there wasn't always a neatly wrapped-up happy ending. By no means do I imply that I wished for negative outcomes, but I believe the book effectively conveys realistic expectations of therapy. It reminds readers that engaging in group therapy or any form of therapy doesn't guarantee that all problems will vanish. Instead, therapy serves as a means to transcend conflicts rather than eradicate them.

And certainly with me as being a failing parent. But I think when you’ve had a really abusive, difficult childhood, in some ways the hate does you more harm and the blame because it gets inside you and it contaminates every other feeling that you have. So that if you can find a way of giving yourself a story. You know, the the emotions that we have, if you can allow yourself to feel the legitimate feelings and allow ourselves to be angry and upset and betrayed and all of those things, and also kind of find a way of saying, you know, they were given who they were, the history they had and what they knew. They did the best they could. And that best was devastating for me. Kind of does cover it because if you just keep blaming them and keep hating them, it keeps you trapped as well, keeps you imprisoned. I don’t know if the word is forgiveness, but I think it’s living with and allowing for its like the accommodation of both. There were some good bits, probably all of the bad bits and that you have to allow for it.Every Family Has A Story provides the tools that will help with this work of improving our relationships. Its twelve touchstones for family well-being show how to communicate effectively, set boundaries, fight productively and allow change. Kate: When we’re trying to understand our bigger family web and maybe especially. Those in that system who have been unkind, maybe untrue, unfaithful. I mean, maybe the reason why we’re going to therapy in the first place. I wondered if I wonder if we could talk about the limits of this kind of empathy. Because I remember I had an interesting conversation with Tara Westover to remember her. She wrote that book, Educated. It’s this beautiful Why do some families thrive in adversity while others fragment? How can families weather difficult transitions together? Why do our families so often exasperate us? And how can even small changes greatly improve our relationships? Samuel] excels at distilling shrewd insights from her subjects. . . .
