Did your childhood teach you that love had to be earned, and that you never quite earned enough?
Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
• You walk on eggshells in relationships, always bracing for something to go wrong.
• You dismiss your own feelings before anyone else can.
• You attract the same people over and over and can't understand why.
• You achieve something and feel nothing, just waiting for it to fall apart.
• You've spent years asking what's wrong with you, never what happened to you.
I get it. Growing up in a household organized around someone else's needs leaves a mark that doesn't show on the outside. You tried therapy, journaling, positive thinking. You understood a lot, but understanding never reached the place where the hurt actually lives. You're not broken. You adapted to a broken system.
But First, a Warning
This book won't ask you to forgive and move on. If you're hoping to fix your family or get your parent to finally understand, this isn't that book. What it will do is help you look honestly at the childhood you actually had and begin healing the person who came out of it.
