Client Question Friday:
Write your question below or DM or email me and I’ll answer in my reels next week.
Today’s question was ‘How do I stop myself overexplaining everything to my mother?
1. Realise what you are doing - trying to please her, prevent a melt down, stand up for yourself but this could just be a nervous reaction.
2. Think of it like giving extra evidence in court when a verdict has already been announced. Unnecessary and it doesn’t help your situation.
Self protection is key.
RememberJADE not to Justify, Argue, Defend or explained. Send any questions you have [email protected] or message me here.
If any of you are curious about working with me then I am opening up 5 slots for November. Let me know if interested

Why do you still feel fear even though you are in your 60’s, 50’s, 40’s, 30’s?
The Matryoska doll is a great way to explain this. You are made up of many different parts - the 5 yr old, 15 yr old et cetera. Maybe the fear you feel is your 5 year old self responding.
Hope that helps your understanding of how the Mother Wound can still be impacting you in later life.

Could you be the narcissist?
A question I am asked every week!
If you are reflecting on this then it is unlikely but a common fear with the adult daughters.
If you have any questions or topics you would like me to cover here or on my new podcast (with )then ask! Here or send me a message 😊 www.cgcounsellingcoaching.com

If you have a narcissist or emotionally immature mother, you may have realised that she is never wrong!
Your best bet to stay emotionally intact could be to disengage.
Just saying ‘ we remember it differently’ isn’t agreeing or arguing.

Again it is guilt that seems to be a massive burden for so many of the adult daughters of narcissistic or emotionally immature mothers. BUT is it really guilt and yours to carry? Have you done something wrong or is someone trying to guilt trip you?
Many of you adult daughters are empaths and so you feel the emotions of others so strongly and therefore guilt can torment you.

JADE - what happens when you Justify, Argue, Defend or Explain yourself to your narcissist mother
Does it help? Does she accept what you are saying? Does it get you more upset/frustrated/ emotional?
Think about asking questions as a strategy instead.
It takes the heavy thinking and emotional weight off you.
Ask me if you have any examples 😀
