Stop Shrinking, Snapping, or Shutting Down Around Your Parents:
12 Conversation Traps + How To Respond
Get the scripts you need to handle difficult conversations with your emotionally immature parent - without the overwhelm, anxiety, or 3 AM replay
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 walk in the front door!
💥 Bracing yourself for impact - how will they low-key offend you this time?
💥 Managing their emotions and problems - even though this was never your job!
Which is why I created “12 Conversation Traps + How to Respond” - 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 stressing about the upcoming holidays…!
This guide is perfect for you if you:
Grew up with an emotionally unavailable or critical parent
Want to stop feeling guilty, anxious, or controlled by your parent
Want to finally feel clear-headed, calm, and confident
These scripts don’t just help you respond better in the moment - they help you get your confidence, energy - and your sleep - back!
