2 – Who are you? Hero, Rebel, Lost Child, Mascot? Find out now!

08 Apr 2025

Description

In this episode, we're exploring the four roles we often adopt in dysfunctional families — the Hero, the Scapegoat (Rebel), the Lost Child (Invisible One), and the Mascot (Jester) — and how these survival strategies shape who we become as adults. You'll learn how each role affects your: • Romantic relationships • Career choices • Relationship with money • Sense of self-worth I also share how to recognize your own role, why it's not your fault, and what healing can look like — whether that means softening the role, outgrowing it, or learning to reclaim the parts of yourself that were never allowed to fully exist. Even if you don't think you grew up in a dysfunctional family, you might be surprised by how much of this resonates. This episode is for anyone ready to understand themselves better and take the first step toward deeper healing and emotional freedom.
