About This Podcast

But we’re family! Is a podcast that challenges the way that you view family. Too many people are treated poorly by the people they love the most; parents, siblings, in-laws, even grandparents. I’m here to tell you that you do not deserve to be treated badly. We’re going to read a Reddit story or two and then chat about the family dynamics, when it works and when it’s ok to walk away from family to protect your peace.
