The Family Dropouts: We Didn’t Leave Our Families- We Left the Dysfunctional Patterns

Welcome to the very first episode of The Family Dropouts short series, where we’re not just breaking silence—we’re breaking cycles. In this raw and riveting kickoff, Dorcy Pruter share their deeply personal journeys of becoming "family dropouts" not because they stopped loving their families, but because they finally started loving themselves. This isn’t about estrangement for spite. It’s about conscious exits from systems that demanded self-abandonment as the price of admission. From scapegoat survival to lineage-breaking liberation, we unpack the emotional truths behind the moment we knew: no more. You’ll hear stories of covert manipulation, lost years, and the moment of awakening that shattered the trance. We talk reparenting, nervous system healing, and the soul-deep decision to stop playing roles we never chose. If you’ve ever felt like the “bad one” in a broken family system, or like loving yourself would mean betraying your family, this episode will hit home. 🔔 Listen, reflect, and share this episode with someone who’s healing too. 👣 Next step?
