Mother Mayhem: For Daughters of Narcissistic or Emotionally Limited Mothers

Holiday Mayhem 2024: Helping You Daughters Through It


Listen Later

The holidays are here again, with all their big feelings and challenges.

Whether you're preparing for emotional manipulation or feeling the weight of grief, I’m here to support you.

To help you plan for the holidays ahead, I revisit our conversation from last year’s episode, "Mayhem and Mistletoe." Instead of repeating the same insights, I’m sharing this encore presentation to remind you of important strategies for creating a fulfilling holiday experience.

Recommended Journal Reflection: As you begin to plan the holidays for yourselves this year, I encourage you to reflect on this as your first step:If you could create the perfect holiday for yourself, with all things being equal…after all, your mother is always going to be narcissistic, what is the holiday you would design for yourself? Who would you need to be to have that kind of holiday? What would you have to do to preserve that kind of holiday?

Take your time with this prompt and create a clear picture of the holidays you wish to experience. This clarity will help you make decisions, communicate your needs, and set boundaries effectively.

Remember, you’re not alone in navigating this season. If you have questions unique to your holidays, send them in. I will cover them in future Friday chats from now until the holidays.

If group support during this time sounds nice, here’s the link to join.
