In this episode, we explore the concept of adult children - adults who carry behaviors and traumas from their childhoods, especially from dysfunctional families or those with alcoholic parents. We delve into how these past experiences influence adult behavior, affect personal and professional relationships, and impede effective leadership. Marty and I highlight the importance of self-awareness and self-leadership for overcoming these challenges. The discussion also touches on the 'laundry list' of traits common among adult children and its implications for leadership and personal growth.
