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.
