You're Not Crazy: A Podcast for Cycle Breakers with Toxic Parents

Navigating Emotions After Growing Up in a Dysfunctional Family


Listen Later

Ever been told to "sit with your emotions" but had no idea what that really means? If you grew up in a dysfunctional family, you’re not alone. In this episode, I break down this common advice into three practical steps that you can use, no matter how clueless you feel right now.

Learn how to expand your emotional vocabulary, reconnect with your body’s responses, and process difficult emotions in compassionate ways. It’s never too late to develop emotional intelligence, even if you didn’t get these skills growing up.

I also mention the "Before Boundaries" mini-course, available for $29 at confidentboundaries.com, designed to help you understand what you need to know before setting boundaries with a BPD or NPD parent.
