The Danger of Not Setting Boundaries With Family

In this episode of the Blended Kingdom Families Podcast, Scott and Vanessa dive into one of the most requested and challenging topics in blended families: setting boundaries with extended family, adult children, and in laws, especially during the holiday season.

Using real life coaching examples and personal stories, they explain why boundaries are essential for healthy family dynamics, how boundaries without consequences lose their power, and why couples must first get on the same page before addressing outside relationships.

Scott and Vanessa discuss common holiday stressors, blended family tension, adult children navigating independence, and how to protect the peace of your home without guilt or fear. They also share practical steps for communicating boundaries respectfully, following through consistently, and maintaining compassion while standing firm. Biblical wisdom from Matthew 18 guides the conversation, reminding listeners that healthy conflict resolution and mutual respect are key to thriving families.

This episode is essential listening for any couple feeling overwhelmed, disrespected, or uncertain how to address ongoing family tension.

We pray this episode blesses you today!
