Inner Child Parts, Epigenetic Transmission, and Parenting
About this episode
Josh and Christi discuss the impact of unhealed inner child wounds on parenting and how to recognize and address them.
Have you felt yourself revert back to a child in the way you react to your kids, or a particular situation? Watching from the sideline, Josh recently had a moment where his inner child wounds collided with the reality of the his son’s experience on the soccer field. When we come face-to-face with the dissonance between the way we REACT, and the way we want to ACT, something deeper is often at play. Becoming mindful of those moments, and how we respond to them, influences what we pass onto our kids. In this episode, Josh & Christi talk about how to identify an unhealed inner child “part” of yourself, give examples of redeemed and unhealed epigenetic transmission, and provide a beautiful example of how Jesus meets us right where we are.
