If you grew up with an emotionally immature parent (EIP), you know how exhausting it can be to navigate even the simplest chats

Before you know it, you’re:

💥 Feeling drained, anxious, or guilty - even before you answer the phone!
💥 Bracing yourself for impact - how will they low-key offend you this time at family dinner?
💥 Managing their emotions and problems - even though this was never your job!

Which is why I created “12 Conversation Traps + Response Examples” - a quick, actionable guide that:

✅ Identifies the 12 most common conversation traps EIPs use
✅ Gives you exact sample scripts to respond - without shrinking, snapping, or shutting down
✅ Helps you walk into conversations feeling prepared, not pressured
✅ Protects your emotional energy and boundaries

All for just $7 (for now…!) - which is less than a Netflix rental and way more valuable than losing sleep due to stressing about the upcoming holidays…!

Give me the scripts!

This guide is perfect for you if you:

  • Grew up with an emotionally immature, unavailable or critical parent

  • Want to stop feeling guilty, anxious, or controlled by your parent

  • Want to feel more clear-headed, calm, and confident around them

These scripts don’t just help you respond better in the moment - they help you get your confidence, energy - and your sleep - back so you can live a more intentional, connected, and fulfilling life

I need this in my life!
