Navigating Family Dynamics During Crisis

Now let's dive in!

• Your adult stepson doesn't know your late husband wasn't his biological father. Is it your place to clue him in against his mother's wishes? [Thanks to licensed marriage and family therapist Nancy Yen for helping us with this one!]
• You're deeply in love with someone who professes the same toward you, but a prior history of abuse makes her skittish about intimacy. How do you support her through these times while protecting yourself from being hurt every time she pushes you away?
• You and your cancer-battling wife are overjoyed to have a new child, but you sure could use a break from the incessant interference of your intense in-laws. How do you get them off your back and protect your family from their destructively overprotective tendencies?
• Should you pursue an implied job with your wishy-washy in-laws, or take their poor communication skills as a sign that maybe you're better off without taking them on as co-workers?
• Want clarification about how woolly mammoths might once again walk the earth? Here are some updates from our recent guest Ben Lamm!
• Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com!
