CALLING HOME with Whitney Goodman, LMFT

Q&A: I Don't Want To Invite My Family To My Wedding

Feb 20, 2025
34:27

Whitney discusses her three little epiphanies for the week:

  1. therapy lingo continues to be a force for good on reality TV
  2. parents are cutting off their adult children
  3. Should parents get to control your life if they give you money?


She also answers two caller questions. Caller 1 is planning a wedding and doesn't want to invite all of her family members. Caller 2 is trying to find a way to navigate one of the most challenging issues you can face within a family - child grooming and potential child s*xual abuse.


*Please keep in mind this episode discussed themes of child ab*se in caller 2.*
