How to Befriend Your Inner Parents

Friday Night Live 2 May 2025

In this episode, I examine internalized parenting and its impact on adult behaviors, starting with a discussion on societal reactions to racial triggers through the lens of a recent incident involving Shiloh Hendricks. I share personal experiences that highlight how parental interactions shape our self-regulation and trigger responses, often leading to self-censorship.

The conversation explores the effects of these dynamics on relationships and emphasizes the importance of recognizing our internalized parents as protective forces. I reflect on my journey as a father, balancing guidance with independence, and stress that understanding our internal narratives is crucial for personal growth and authenticity.

How to Confront Evil: Listener Question

In this lecture, Stefan Molyneux explores the complexities of human psychology and morality, particularly regarding parenting and self-reflection. He discusses the emotional barriers that prevent individuals from acknowledging their perceived wrongdoings, citing childhood trauma and self-medication as contributing factors. Molyneux critiques societal norms that rationalize harmful behaviors and emphasizes the distinction between subjective and objective morality. He advocates for a compassionate, indirect approach to confrontations about abusive behaviors. The lecture ultimately highlights the challenge of moral clarity and the importance of empathy in fostering personal growth.

I welcomed Bryan Adams back into my playlist this week thanks to the Friday episode. I’ve only recently made peace with my inner parents, and the podcast triggered a memory from my teens - me singing Everything I Do, I Do It for You while it played on TV. My mother, initially quiet and lost in thought, eventually sighed and said something like, “I used to enjoy this song, but it was your father and I’s wedding song and now, whenever I hear it, I just think...‘lies.’” She didn’t have to ask me to stop listening. Inner Mother knew best. Bryan Adams, whose music I genuinely enjoyed, just quietly disappeared from my playlists.

As an adult, if that song came on the car radio, I’d change the station even if she wasn't physically with me.

So of course, I went to Spotify and listened to it again after all these years and my inner mother was completely fine. It’s a small thing, but it brought a winning smile to my face and wanted to share that. Next step: karaoke!!
