In this episode, Nathan and Kathy discuss
- What family systems are and how they operate
- Tools to reflect inward and examine your own operating system along with your family system
- The correlations between you and the generational systems you inherited
- The emotional attachments to success and money and the role those topics play in family systems
Key Takeaways
- Addressing what you and your family have inherited emotionally over generations and what you want to do about it often leads to wonderful discussions and a way to talk about what is most important to you all as a unit.
- Giving yourself time to think about what is important to you to speak for yourself in family conversations is the best way to gain confidence and feel like each family member is heard
- Curiosity is the biggest motivator in taking action and starting these conversations with your family.
“Being yourself with people you are sensitive to, can be magic.”
