Many daughters of narcissistic and emotionally immature mothers struggle with the question of whether to stay in contact or go no contact. While there is plenty of advice about setting boundaries with a narcissistic mother, there is far less conversation about what it means to remain in relationship with her without losing yourself.

In this episode of Mother Mayhem, we’re talking about the guilt and shame many daughters experience when staying in contact with a mother who continues to hurt them. Together, we look at self-abandonment, people-pleasing, managing a mother's emotions, and the challenge of staying connected to your own truth when your mother disagrees with it.

If you are trying to navigate a relationship with a narcissistic mother, emotionally immature mother, or emotionally limited parent, this conversation will help you shift the question from "How do I get my mother to change?" to "Given who she is, what works for me?"
