Who Were You Forced to Be? | Mid Week Tease

podcast August 26, 2025


Background
share close

In this Mid Week Tease, Adelle explores the characters children often adopt in dysfunctional families, the hero, the clown, the scapegoat, the lost child. These roles may have kept us safe as children, but they can trap us as adults, shaping our relationships, our sense of self, and even how we love. This episode dives into:

  • What family dysfunction creates these childhood roles.
  • The most common characters children adapt.
  • The hidden cost of carrying them into adulthood.
  • How to shed these roles and step into your true self.
  • Navigating family relationships after you’ve stopped playing the part.
