Have you ever ghosted your family?

Blocked a parent?

Sat through a holiday pretending everything was fine?

Welcome to The Family Dropouts—a podcast for the ones who walked away to survive, not to hurt. For the lineage breakers, the scapegoats turned sovereigns, the ones still asking:

1. Am I the problem?
2. Is it too late?
3. Can I love them without losing myself?

We’re Dorcy Pruter (reunification coach, lineage disruptor) and Madi Welborne (creator of the Anti-Alienation Project). And this isn’t a therapy podcast—it’s a soul reclamation space.

Here, we name what the culture avoids:

✦ Estrangement without shame

✦ Reunions without fantasy

✦ Truth without sugarcoating

This short trailer is your invitation to join the family dropout revolution.

No blame. No BS. Just bold, soul-smart healing from people who’ve lived it.

Subscribe now. Share with someone you love who’s healing, too.

Because dropping out doesn’t make you broken.

It makes you brave

Welcome to Family Dropouts.

If you've ever ghosted your family,

blocked a parent,

or sat through one more

holiday pretending everything was fine,

this is your show.

I'm Dorsey Pruder, lineage breaker,

reunification coach,

and someone who's been both

scapegoated and sovereign.

I know what it means to leave,

and I know what it takes to

come back to yourself.

And I'm Maddie from the

Anti-Alienation Project.

I'm not a therapist and I am

not here to diagnose you.

I'm someone who walked away

from my family system and

found a new way to love

them without losing myself again.

We made this show for people like us,

the ones caught in the in-between.

Some fully estranged, some fully restored.

No nonsense, just real.

here we name the truth

behind estrangement cutoffs

messy reunions and

everything the therapists

the courts and the culture

get wrong no shame no blame

and no sugar coating just

raw conversations and the

kind of healing insights

you will not hear in a

therapist's office because

we've lived it if you've ever asked

Am I the problem?

Is it too late?

Or how do I stop missing

them and protect myself?

You belong here.

So hit subscribe and share

this with another family dropout.

This is the show that we

wish we had when we were

trying to untangle

ourselves from the family spell.

This is the Family Dropouts Podcast,

and you're not alone anymore.
