What is family systems theory, and why should advisors care? In this episode of the PPI 101 Podcast Series, family legacy coach Steve Legler hosts Dr. Charles Eckhart, PPI's Dean of Family Dynamics, Systems Theory, and Relationships and leader of the Family Systems Theory Learning Circle. Charles traces family systems thinking to its roots in mid-20th-century family therapy, then shows how it gives advisors a new way to understand clients who seem stuck. The conversation centers on three foundational concepts: wholeness and interdependence, or seeing the family as a connected unit rather than a group of individuals; circular causality, the idea that family conflicts have many contributing causes instead of one "problem" person; and homeostasis, the tendency of families to resist change even when everyone wants to move forward. A familiar case anchors the discussion: parents waiting for their rising generation to "show they're ready" before discussing wealth, while the next generation puts off major life decisions until they know more. Charles also offers three practical questions advisors can use to shift into a systems lens, and recommends Nichols and Schwartz's Family Therapy: Concepts and Methods as a starting point for further reading.
