In this episode, we explore the Drama Triangle, a powerful model that explains dysfunctional family dynamics. We discuss how parents and children often fall into roles of Victim, Persecutor, and Rescuer, creating cycles of conflict and stress. Learn practical strategies to break free from these patterns and shift towards more empowering roles that foster growth, connection, and well-being. Discover how understanding and applying these concepts can lead to a more loving and fulfilling family life.

The Drama Triangle, developed by Dr. Stephen Karpman, is a social model that describes three habitual roles people play in stressful or conflict situations1. These roles are:

"The Drama Triangle is a model of dysfunctional social interaction. Each player in the triangle has their own beliefs and behaviors that reinforce the problem rather than resolve it." - Dr. Stephen Karpman

"The Empowerment Dynamic offers an antidote to the Drama Triangle. It's about moving from a reactive stance to a creative orientation." - David Emerald

"The quality of our lives depends not on whether or not we have conflicts, but on how we respond to them." - Thomas Crum
