Om Good Daughter, Mean Mother
Do you find it very impossible to manage your emotions when you talk to your mother, even if you're an adult and usually rather excellent at handling conflict with other people?
Is it ever on your mind, or are you certain that your mother isn't like other mothers? A normal mother wouldn't hurt her daughter in this way, nor would she accept responsibility for it.
Do you often wish you could do anything to live a more peaceful, happier life and break free from your mother's negative influence?
Do you think you're stuck in your relationship with your mother, no matter how hard you try to please her?
Do you believe that your mental well-being should be your first concern? struggle to set boundaries without feeling guilty about it or encounter so much opposition that you ultimately conclude it's not worth it?
You love your mother dearly, yet you find her intolerable.
She regulates and criticizes your life, butts into it all the time. Setting boundaries may be met with resistance and embarrassment, which may lead you to conclude it's not worth the effort.
Do you possess empathy, kindness, love, and sensitivity?
I expose the implicit agreements and underlying myths (formed during infancy) that give each trap its tenacity. I then use the latest findings in attachment research, trauma-informed practices, and neuroscience to help girls who are caught in the Good Daughter role escape the cycle of intergenerational harm. This enables children to confront their moms with confidence.
Give up holding oneself responsible for their mother's happiness.
Set long-lasting good, healthful boundaries.
Delete the negativity that your mother instilled in you and get over your self-doubt.
Saying "no" to Mom is prevented by your refusal to give in to guilt.
You can rediscover the beauties and benefits of life. This book is intended for those who are ready to go on a healing journey. If you're ready to take back control of your parenting and protect your children from their narcissistic grandmother's dishonesty and manipulation, this book will be your comprehensive guide
