In this episode I interview Rev. Jake Morrill, lead minister at the Oak Ridge Unitarian Universalist Church outside Knoxville and longtime student of Bowen Family Systems Theory, about sibling position theory, one of the eight interlocking concepts of Bowen Theory. Your birth order isn’t fate, but it can help you understand yourself and others a little more clearly. One disclaimer: Jake and I realized after recording that, in an effort to accurately represent Toman’s work, we didn’t discuss the complexity of gender and sibling position theory. We know that gender is complex and believe that more thinking needs to go into the ways this part of Bowen theory applies to our transgender and gender non-binary loved ones. If you have ideas on this topic, be in touch!
