How to Manage Family and Friends for a Peaceful Life
Manage episode 386144203 series 2288000
In this Friends and Family episode, I did a short presentation and interviewed Melanie Hill who specialises in this area. We discuss how family and friends can sometimes become barriers that hold midlife women back.
Relationships which were close and loving in childhood can turn sour and bitter in later life. We may keep up appearances but underneath there is an uncomfortable tension.
The same applies to friendships made in childhood. The friend expects you to stay like them in adulthood and fears your desire to change and get ahead. These can then turn into ‘toxic friendships’ and do no good to either side.
These are both made worse by the misuse of the word ‘love’ to create emotional blackmail.
