What Happens When the Family Falls Apart?

When we talk about the issues facing our cities—violence, inequality, broken trust—we often miss the root cause: the breakdown of the family.

Adam B. Coleman, founder of Wrong Speak Publishing, co-founder of the THIRST Network, author, and public speaker, joins Jim Iuorio and Bob Iaccino on Futures Edge to unpack how fatherlessness, fractured homes, and shifting cultural values are quietly unraveling society.

They explore the generational impact of family instability, the emotional and economic toll of separation, and the hidden ways trauma shapes relationships. From confidence in young women to the role of faith in restoring stability, this conversation challenges the narratives that normalize dysfunction—and offers a path to healing through personal, spiritual, and societal accountability.

More than a diagnosis, it’s a call to rebuild what truly matters: healthy families, strong foundations, and love that lasts.
