In this episode of Being Human with Steve Cuss, host Steve Cuss and Clarissa Moll explore how family of origin shapes behavior, workplace dynamics, and faith. They discuss family roles, birth order, triangulation, and unspoken emotional rules, examining how these patterns follow us into adulthood. Steve shares personal reflections on suppressing emotions and struggling to grieve, while Clarissa draws from her experience as a widowed parent. Together, they offer practical guidance on identifying triggers, finding trusted support, and using boundaries to pursue healing and freedom in Christ.Episode Resources: Genograms in Practice Explainer (pdf) Pete Scazzero’s Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Biography of Murray Bowen  Family Systems Theory’s Eight Concepts Circle of Permitted EmotionsMore From Clarissa Moll: Clarissa Moll’s The Bulletin podcast Explore Clarissa Moll’s website Read Clarissa Moll’s substackSign up for Steve’s Newsletter & Podcast Reminders:Capable Life NewsletterGet the Communication Styles Guide:https://capablelife.com/pages/podcastJoin Steve at an Upcoming Intensive: Capable Life IntensivesLearn more about your ad choices.
