Episode 2735: Dr. Mariette Jansen explores how strained mother-daughter relationships can be softened by shifting focus from trying to change the other person to adjusting one’s own responses. Through her client Trish’s story, she shows how acceptance, setting conversational boundaries, and understanding generational differences can replace conflict with deeper connection and love. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://drdestress.co.uk/how-improve-my-relationship-with-my-mother/ Quotes to ponder: "Unfortunately, Trish wants to change her mum. But one of the principles in the ‘instruction book of life’ is that you can only change yourself." "Her children are great to her and the approval of a grandmother is actually irrelevant." "Two different experiences, valid in their own right."
