CALLING HOME with Whitney Goodman, LMFT

In this episode, we explore how children are drawn into adult roles—whether through emotional or logistical parentification. We examine the family conditions that create these dynamics, share real-life examples, and discuss how these experiences impact you as an adult. We’ll also explore how the very skills you developed to survive can both help and hinder you later in life, and provide actionable strategies for reclaiming your inner child and healing generational patterns.Join The Family Cyclebreakers Club: www.callinghome.co/joinHave a question for Whitney?
