My sister and I decided we want to build a different kind of relationship than the one we inherited from our family patterns, but every time we try to be more honest with each other, decades of old dynamics kick in and we end up feeling more distant. We're both committed to this but it's harder than we expected.
More people experience this than they realize.
Breaking free from inherited family dynamics while staying in relationship requires both people to navigate the tension between old patterns and new possibilities.
