In today's show I, your host Lindsay Celeste, answer a heartfelt question from someone who wants to be closer to someone who wants to have a better relationship with a family member. When they stand up for a boundary that's important to them, the other person gets defensive.

My answer for this one comes from some of the deepest relationship lessons of my life. There's a lot of my learning and soul in this one.

If you've ever struggled with a family relationship that you wish was more open and vulnerable, I think you'll find this one helpful.
