EP21: Look Who's Talking: GEN X MOM vs. MILLENNIAL DAUGHTER

Summary Join me and my guest Promise Israel as we discuss the current climate of parents navigating the evolving relationship dynamics with their adult children and why there seems to be a phenomenon of adult children now despising their parents. The conversation delves into the no contact phenomenon, accountability in parent-child relationships, and the overuse of the term narcissism in family dynamics. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of parenting, control, and the dynamics of family relationships. They discuss the balance between guiding children and allowing them freedom, the impact of gentle parenting, and the importance of accountability in family dynamics. The conversation also touches on the significance of self-reflection, healing, and the role of therapy in personal growth. Ultimately, they emphasize the need for open communication and understanding between generations to foster healthier relationships.
