Judgement & Awkward Conversations: Dealing w/ Religious Extended Family
Navigating the complexities of extended family dynamics, especially when religious beliefs are involved, can sometimes feel like walking through a minefield. From holiday gatherings to gift exchanges, from discussions about kids to interactions with grandkids, the potential for hurt feelings and awkward conversations can be daunting.
But fear not! If you missed it, I had the privilege of being part of an illuminating discussion on how to navigate these tricky waters while preserving important relationships and staying true to your values.
In this video, hosted by Amaia Perez and Medelin Nolasco from RfR (Recovering from Religion), we explored practical tips for managing interactions with religious in-laws and extended family members. Drawing from my expertise as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California, specializing in helping mixed-faith and religious/secular couples foster connected, intimate, and satisfying relationships, I shared insights tailored to our unique challenges.
Plus, to support mixed-faith couples on their journey to understanding and unity, I'm offering a free mini-course packed with valuable tools and guidance.
If you're navigating the delicate balance of family dynamics and religious differences, be sure to catch the replay of this invaluable discussion. It's filled with practical advice and strategies that can help you navigate those tricky conversations and maintain healthy relationships.
