Summary
How can you navigate the complexities of having a family in the human dimension? In this episode of INNER WORK, I respond to a listener email on this topic. Join me for a discussion of:
- the complexities of family dynamics in our human dimension
- dispelling myths and delusions about family from the 3D reality, such as the myths that blood is thicker than water and that you owe your family or parents your life
- how to deal with feelings of guilt, burden, or obligation towards your family
- what it can feel like to be a Starseed or interplanetary soul in a family of (mostly) Earth-based souls
- giving yourself permission to create a family or tribe outside your family of origin
Thank you to Jodie for writing in with this thought-provoking question, and for allowing me to share her words on the air.

| 0:53.1 | It is not by accident that as the holidays are rapidly approaching |
| 0:58.0 | right now, it is December of 2022, that we are touching on the tender topic, sometimes the |
| 1:06.6 | emotionally charged topic of family. So I got a listener email from Jody on this topic, and I want to |
| 1:16.6 | extend my deepest gratitude to Jody for listening to the podcast and writing in with this question, |
| 1:24.5 | with this topic. So Jody said, and I'm going to slightly paraphrase her email just for |
| 1:31.3 | the purposes of our episode. So basically she asked, is there any way we can discuss the complexities of |
| 1:41.1 | dealing with family members on our journeys, along with discernment. |
| 1:47.8 | Also, burdens of obligation to family members. |
| 1:52.1 | Clearly, it's heavy on my mind. |
| 1:53.9 | How can we define family in this life and navigate the differences in mindset between us and our family members. |
| 2:05.3 | So that's essentially the gist of Jody's email. |
| 2:09.3 | And thank you again, Jody, for your permission to bring this up on the air. |
| 2:15.4 | So I think this is a very relevant topic to address during this season as the holidays are kind of rushing towards us. |
| 2:25.8 | If you do celebrate, you're probably making plans already, making arrangements. |
| 2:31.8 | Many of us are going to be seeing and gathering with family during this time. |
