You love your mother, but she drives you crazy.

She controls, criticizes, and butts into your life constantly. Then when you try and set boundaries, the pushback and resulting guilt are so bad you tell yourself...it's just not worth it.

Is your mother narcissistic, borderline, or just plain difficult?

Are you empathetic, sensitive, and kind?

Do you feel stuck in your relationship with Mom:

  • trying to please her but never feeling good enough?
  • feel responsible for Mom's emotional well-being?
  • struggle to set boundaries without feeling guilty or getting so much pushback you end up feeling like…it's just not worth it?

If so, chances are you have fallen into one or all of the hidden psychological traps that constitute the Good Daughter Syndrome.

I help daughters trapped in the Good Daughter role escape and break the cycle of intergenerational wounding so that they can:

  • Stand up to Mom with confidence.
  • Stop feeling responsible for their mother's happiness.
  • Set healthy boundaries that stick.
  • Banish the negative internalized mother and conquer self-doubt.
  • Say "no" to Mom without letting guilt stop them.

Following my step-by-step system, you can escape this destructive dynamic, finally feel good enough, stand up to your mother without guilt, and replace self-doubt with self-trust and shame with self-acceptance.

Then, whether or not your mother ever changes, you can break free of this disempowering dynamic and claim a life that is truly your own.

The first self-help book that actually helped me work through the less than desirable relationship with my mother. Bought the audio book and the hard copy to put exercises in play.

Identifying the problems that my daughter and I are having is beneficial. I've run it through once, but I will have to read it again. When I read it, I read it for both of us. When I listen to it again, I'll have to stay just on the track of my daughter. This is generational for us, and my daughter moved far ahead me with realizing her authentic self, and she has taken a long pause, until I did the same. I'm working on it, but this book opened my potentially to the choices I have. The language that we speak with was the most important feature. How I talk to my daughter, will be very different from now on. Thank you.

I have no idea what this narrative was trying to do with her voice - I guess adding flair? But her intonation is so consistently inappropriate, it's difficult to stay focused on the content. Very disappointing. I'm surprised she was employed and paid for this work.

Valuable listen if you can tolerate the narrator

I can't believe how spot on most of this was. I have dealt with so much of this in my own relationship with my mother. I do wish there had been more stories because they are so helpful. The reader though. The reader's voice was really pleasant, but her cadence and placement of emphasis was frequently distracting.

Spot on
