60. Mothering When You’re the Daughter of a Narcissistic Mother (Part 2)

In the second part of this difficult and vulnerable conversation, we’re diving into two more of your most pressing parenting questions.  First, we’ll explore how to pull yourself out of a shame spiral when you’ve made your child feel bad. Then, we’ll tackle the challenge of managing your child’s big feelings when those emotions trigger you and make you want to shut down. These are tough topics, but you don’t have to navigate them alone.  If today’s discussion resonates with you and you’re looking for a space to connect with other daughters facing similar challenges, I’d love to invite you to join Tuesday group.  It’s a welcoming drop-in group where we support each other through the ups and downs of recovery- including motherhood.  Here’s the link to join—we’d love to have you with us. Mentioned in the credits: Simple Scripts for Saying Hard Things, a resource I created to help you manage the difficult conversations in life, love, and work.
