Welcome to Good Enough, a weekly subscriber newsletter where I help you work through your family drama to create more meaningful adult family relationships. This is Week 1 out of 4 in the Growing Up With Parents Who Couldn't Handle Your Emotions Series.


This Email Is For You If:

  • You were punished for expressing your feelings as a child

  • You want to understand why a parent may have been uncomfortable with your emotions

  • You want to feel and express your feelings in adulthood without the guilt

What’s In This Email:

  • How your emotional landscape is developed as a child (it’s not just your parents)

  • Why some parents are uncomfortable with emotions

  • How to stop blaming yourself for feeling things you were punished for feeling as a kid

  • An invitation to join me on June 26 @ 1 PM ET for a live and recorded Q&A.
