Most [if not all] of us are well familiar with the challenges of being an adult, spending a period of time at home with our parents. Whether it’s moving back in with the folks long term, or just a weekend together with the fam, something about being back under mom and dad’s roof can bring old, unhealthy patterns from childhood right back to the surface.
In this episode, I once again interview my daughter Keana. After 18 months of being out of our home, she’s now spending a season back with us and is navigating the tricky dynamics that come with relating to Cora and I and her younger siblings. We share openly about our own relationship, and Keana gives some helpful tips about how to move back in with the family, whilst also maintaining your personal values and boundaries, and basically just not going completely mental.

Our current podcast series provides short overviews of each of the four core values at the heart of Restoring Connections.
They are: Personal Responsibility, Proactive Care, Powerful Communication, and Healthy Boundaries.
In this episode, we look a little closer at:
Healthy Boundaries - Protecting the Connection
and these principles:
1. I learn and keep learning my limits
2. I set up boundaries and break down walls
3. I set boundaries for me and let you set boundaries for you
4. I have a plan for unmet needs
