Why Forgiving Toxic Family Can Set You Back | Dr. Ramani

People think you cut off family over one bad moment. It's never one moment. It's the last of 1,500 others.

In this clip, Dr. Ramani Durvasula and Jay Shetty talk about how you know it's time to cut off a toxic family member. Dr. Ramani explains the "natural experiment." It can show you the truth about a relationship without you saying a word.

She opens up about her own no contact decision, one that took 40 years to make. She shares why the people who walk away are often the ones who tried hardest to fix things. And she explains what to say when the whole family starts pushing back.

Learn the one sign that shows someone can really change. And learn why forgiveness isn't always the healthy choice.
