Hey podcast friends!

This week I start by talking about how things are never in perfect balance. We often are focused on an area of our life and we go all in. I am also diving into family roles. This comes from family roles theory in addiction. We take on roles based on our personalities and environment. If there was a family member who had the spotlight such as mental illness, addiction, behavior or anything else then you likely fell into a role that protected you during that time. The roles are:

1. Addict/Victim

2.Scapegoat

3. Hero

4. Lost child

5.Enabler

The important thing to remember is that you do not have to live in this role. You get to choose how you want to change that. You can challenge family values and beliefs to create your own but that doesn't come naturally. As human being, we innately want to be accepted by our families. If we are challenging our beliefs than it can feel like we are betraying our family.
