In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Emily Guarnotta to explore the hidden psychological impact of growing up with a mother functioning at a borderline level of personality organization. We discuss how emotional instability, fear of separation, and difficulty maintaining a stable sense of self can shape the child’s developing mind. Through a psychodynamic lens, we explore how the child’s developing mind is shaped within these complex relationships—how experiences of closeness, separation, love, fear, and conflict become organized internally and influence the way the person experiences themselves and others.
