The Family Script: Family Dynamics Pattern Guide

The problem

You're a grown woman with a career and a life — and one holiday dinner puts you right back in your 12-year-old role. The peacekeeper. The fixer. The one who doesn't make waves. That role didn't stay at home, either. It shows up at work, in friendships, and in who you choose.

What this helps you do

• Name the role you were assigned in your family — and where you still play it
• Trace how family rules show up in your adult relationships
• Separate loyalty from obligation
• Decide which parts of the script you're keeping, and which you're done with
