In this episode, Sarah covers eight signs of emotional MATURITY, as well as ways to heal from a parent (or other relationship) who is emotionally harsh or dismissive. Identifying the people in your life who are emotionally mature and making time to connect with them, is key to healing. Setting boundaries is also instrumental in regaining a safe space for you to grow and heal. Sarah walks listeners through best practices for setting boundaries. Sarah also explains what getting stuck playing roles can do to impede your healing journey. As well as, how hanging on to healing fantasies can interfere with forward growth. Sarah discusses Dr. Gibson's book "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents." If it is your parent who is emotionally immature, the effects can be especially hard.

In this episode, Sarah covers eight signs of emotional immaturity and shows how being in a relationship with someone who is emotionally immature can be traumatic. Understanding these eight signs of emotional immaturity will help you identify where you end and the other person begins, which is the start of any healing journey for emotional abandonment. Explosive anger, self-absorption, and discomfort with disagreement are a few examples. Sarah discusses Dr. Gibson's book "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents." If it is your parent who is emotionally immature, the effects can be especially hard.
