The mapping is incorrect there hence you see the error.
Map:-
Family Name >> Product Family
Blank >> Parent
Family code >> Code
Similarly you need to do for E1 departments as well.
Product Family is the highest level in hierarchy hence you don't need to map any parent to it.

@ZachChurch make sure that your hierarchy is set-up correctly. Do you have your Parents specified for your list? It seems that you did not do that correctly and therefore the import shows you an error.

I am not sure what is wrong with my parent lists.

Hi @ZachChurch
E2 Employees is a numbered hence you need to map it with the code and leave the first row empty.
Could you pls share screenshot of the Import action mapping to help you further.

Is your E1 department list populated ?
If not pls update/populate that list first as E1 department is parent of E2 Employees.
Then run the E2 Employees action.
Share screenshots of E1 department if problem persists.

I'm very confused about the invalid parent error. I deleted it and started fresh and E1 I imported things in and it was good. Then when I imported into E2 it gave me that error.

Step 1.- Pls create and run import action for P1 Product family and E1 Deparments.
Step 2:- Run E2 and P2 Import actions.
Note:- Only if step 1 is successful and data is visible in those lists ,step 2 will be successful.
Else share screenshots of P1 and E1 import actions
