Summary
This week, Thomas sits down for a touching conversation on navigating the complex dynamics of parent-child relationships with father-and-son duo, Rick and Forrest Hanson. In this intimate interview, Rick, a renowned psychologist and author, and Forrest, author and host of the “Being Well” podcast, share their unique and personal perspectives on healthy power dynamics, children’s autonomy, identity development, the inevitability of parental mistakes, and what’s needed for repair and forgiveness. Thomas brings his own experiences as a parent forward in a dialogue that offers a loving and healthy vision of fatherhood and masculinity. They also discuss family relationships from a bigger-picture perspective, and explore how individual family dynamics reflect broader societal wounds and forge paths for collective healing and generational pattern breaking. ✨ Watch the video version of this episode on YouTube: 👉 https://youtu.be/gdapyEpeikM Video episodes are typically posted at 8am PT/ 11am ET ✨ Registration is open for “Foundations of Trauma-Informed Coaching & Consulting.” This 8-week live online course, co-taught by Thomas Hübl and Amy Elizabeth Fox, is for coaches, consultants, group facilitators, and HR professionals who want to bring greater presence, depth, and trauma-informed awareness to their work with leaders and teams.
