Reclaim Freedom

This audiobook contemplates toxic parent relationships rather thoughtfully. Its most striking contribution goes to the nuanced approach toward boundary setting-beautifully practical yet non-pedantic, both accessible and transformational. Though parts may veer towards general advice, the compassionate and insightful tone is conveyed throughout. The work provides a solid framework for readers in the need to understand and move through complex family dynamics and is a valuable resource for anyone undertaking a journey toward emotional autonomy.

A very complex book that goes around the problem

Since there is no perfect person and family, everyone must have problems with their parents. This book explores this area. Everyone should read this book. I don't have a single friend who is not aware to this day that their parents are manipulating them to some extent. What I appreciate most in this book is setting boundaries.

Hits home!

This audiobook definitely strikes a nerve and has helped me realize the importance of boundaries. Not just in familial settings but with every type of relationship you have in your life. I learned that emotionally unavailable parents can affect us as adults and that’s why it’s important to heal those childhood wounds. I’m so grateful for this book!
