Glennon Doyle and Audacy
About this episode

Author and clinical psychologist, Lindsay C. Gibson, is back to share practical steps to disentangle ourselves from emotionally immature people (EIPs), emphasizing the importance of repetition, persistence, and consistency in communication as well as boundary setting.


Lindsay addresses questions about being in relationship with EIPs including: 


  • Are people raised by EIPs prone to entering relationships with similar dynamics?


  • What happens when we try to have conversations or engage in conflict with EIPs?


  • How do we ACTUALLY HEAL as adult children of EIPs and maintain healthy detachment?


For Part 1 of our conversation, check out: 263. Healing from Emotionally Immature Parents with Lindsay C. Gibson.
