Breaking The Cycle of Emotionally Immature Parenting

Mastermind Parenting Podcast

Look out, listener, I have another new book crush, and I can’t wait to discuss her work with you! I’ve recently been captivated by Lindsay C. Gibson and her book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents. It spoke to so much of my experience with my own parents and their resistance to reflecting on how they raised me, and it also explains the conditioning that so many of my Mastermind parents are struggling against! I’m ready to start a whole conversation on the topics this book raised. I’m glad you’re here to be part of it!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why it can be so hard for our parents to face the mistakes they made raising us, and how we can learn from their resistance to self-reflection.
• How the concept of emotional immaturity can help you understand your own healing, and help you keep that behavior out of your own parenting.
• Why highly-sensitive kids are uniquely equipped to see through the pretense and performance that we use to mask our insecurities as parents.

And much more!
