❋ What to Expect

4-Week Small Group Experience

Talking to parents and siblings can be some of the hardest conversations we have. Family history, expectations, and old roles often make it difficult to say what we truly mean.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I don’t know how to bring this up without it turning into an argument.”

“I set boundaries, but they don’t respect them.”

“Every time I try to talk to them, I shut down.”

“I keep giving more than I have to give.”

This small group is designed to help you navigate those conversations with clarity and confidence.

This is not just about learning what boundaries are. It’s about practicing how to communicate them and how to hold them—especially when family dynamics make it difficult.

❋ What This Group Is

This is a 4-week small group experience focused specifically on navigating difficult conversations with parents and siblings.

The group will be intentionally kept small so everyone has space to engage, ask questions, and reflect on their experiences.

Each week includes:

A guided discussion and teaching

Reflection exercises

Practical strategies for real-life situations

Weekly homework to apply what you learn
