When your parents are pathologically self-centered, manipulative, or emotionally abusive, the pain they cause is deep and often difficult to put into words. You may experience anxiety, depression, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD), low self-esteem, addiction, or other mental health conditions as an adult. But it was not your fault, and there are tools you can use to heal the trauma caused by your childhood.

This compassionate guide will help you gain a greater understanding of what happened in your past; transform deep pain into emotional resilience; and build the loving, meaningful relationship with yourself that you deserve. You'll also learn to set boundaries with others, assert your needs, and overcome emotional avoidance to develop warm, loving relationships with others.

Author Sherrie Campbell offers powerful skills drawn from a range of evidence-based treatments, including mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), self-compassion, lived experience, and body-based practices to help you heal from the past and reconnect with your authentic self.

Let this book guide you on the path to healing, wholeness, and self-discovery.

Really well done. Solid insight to family dynamics and generational trauma. Also guides you though how to care for yourself as you endure or leave the abusive cycle.

Accuracy is incredible.

this is one of the better books that I have listened to on the topic of narcissistic. /emotionally abusive parents. The author has a unique perspective as being someone that was emotionally abused by their own parents and also has a background in psychology to uniquely help others on this path. I found many times that I wanted to highlight or come back to what was being said as a way to share with my spouse, the things that I felt encompassed my experience that I had not been able to find words for previously. A lot of tips and tricks for moving forward and not staying stuck in abuse were given. I'm really glad I have this audiobook in my library as I will be listening to it again. my only gripe was during the part that the author said to do everything you can to get to know yourself better including astrology. This doesn't align with me and it took some of the validity away from that portion as a belief system not science. Overrall, I do think that the book is worth reading and shouldn't be dismissed for this small segment.

I wish I had this book 50 years ago, I come from an emotional abusive dysfunctional family, this book has validated my feelings, experiences etc.. it's the most freeing feeling to finally be honest with myself, we were always told to never speak of what went on in our house , it created an enormous amount of shame & guilt inside me, there were 6 children in this family and 3 of them took their own adult lives, the inner trauma that we endured was horrific, I made it out when I was 18 but never really left emotionally till I was 37, I finally had enough, I'm 68 now and I have spent decades working on loving myself, it's amazing how as an adult you invite people in your life that treat you the same way your parents did, but I have to say Dr Sherri Campbell is our voice & a brave soul, I am in awe of her research and i thank her so very much for writing this book!! this will help so many people to change their life, there is power in knowledge and there is power within us to change the narrative and start living the life we deserve and this book will definitely do that

There are no words to describe how important this book is. Alas, I will attempt to find them...

Dr. Campbell is intrinsic to providing understanding pertaining to emotional abuse and C-PTSD. The information in this book would be incredibly beneficial to our world if we were educated on these topics growing up. I consider this a textbook for healthy parenting, how to overcome inadequate and abusive parenting, identifying abuse, and the tools to discover the survivors' true self.

I sincerely believe every person on earth would benefit from listening to, or reading this book. She has provided me with the perpetually sought validation and insight on the chaos I've experienced since literally the day I was born.

I can't thank you enough, Dr. Campbell.

This is the second book I’ve listened to by this author. I’m going to find a 3rd now. She’s so relatable and discusses things I’ve never talked about to anyone. Highly recommend!

Excellent!

Dr Sherrie is doing something so taboo and so needed in our culture: telling the ugly truth. This book is a deep-dive into the reality of toxic parents, families, and legacies that can be rewritten and healed.
