Then Drew said how healthy Jeanette is and how if she ever did choose to become a mother that she'd be a great one. (That's probably a thought that Jeanette hasn't dared to really entertain.) Drew didn't pressure Jeanette to have kids, she just gave her a boost of confidence that she'd be great at it. And she shared her own struggles and her own growth without being holier-than-thou in any way. It was such a supportive exchange. 🥰

Most people that I've spoken with that have been contributors or just didn't view my life from the same lens, will tell me that I only read the situation to place myself as the victim.

I would highly recommend reading Brene Brown's books or listening to her TED talks. She has done in-depth shame research, and her material is very HEALING! Focus on one thing today: make things about actions rather than internalizing the actions into an adjective for yourself. That's a big one for people who struggle with the weight of shame. I encourage you to see things in the future as an action...This is a simple example, but a good place to start is by thinking: I did ___badly...... FOCUS on that instead of saying *I* am bad (or whatever adjective that is tearing yourself down), because this incubates shame. I hope I could help a little bit and that I was able to help in some way. I hope you feel a little bit better each day going forward. 💞

I have accepted that I will never have a positive relationship with my mom, and I no longer allow her to destroy my life just because I feel like I owe her for giving birth to me.

Me too! But, though I struggled with the relationship with my mom, I too thought that she would never change. She recognized her own behavior as toxic, and that it stemmed from her own childhood abuse, would admit her own faults, and actively sought therapy for her issues, and tried like hell to work on herself. Even though she did back-slide several times, and many times she didn't know if she could change, have a different mindset and truly be the kind of person, she's always wanted to be. She started her journey of healing in her late 20's, when she was able to understand that she had trauma from the abuse she suffered in her childhood and was also physically abusing her own children, because she wasn't shown another way of disciplining. But she knew deep down that, hitting her children with a belt every time we misbehaved, was absolutely WRONG! It's taken years and years to unpack all that baggage! She's 64 now, has 4 adult children, 9 grandchildren, 2 cats, 2 dogs, and a husband who loves her in every way possible! She's finally able to know, understand and love the amazing person SHE truly IS! Yes, she's been damaged. Yes, she's messed up a lot, made wrong choices, but that's NOT who she is, but what she'd done. It took her a long time to come to know, understand and love the person she is. and she's still working on herself every single day..... I'm so proud of her! She not only saved her own life, but all of ours too! I have no idea how our family's lives would be right now, had she never taken those first few steps towards unlocking her potential.... I'm just so grateful she did!

I tried to set boundaries with my mom and she ignored them. So now we don’t have a relationship. My mental health is more important.

I smiled soo wide seeing Drew showing Jennette some genuine love. I love the strength it takes to be so brutally honest with this trauma in this way. Congratulations Jennette!

I feel this was very healing for Drew, you could see the moment Drew was asking the real underlying questions and how Janette really got it and understood.

You can tell how inspired by her Drew is. The questions she was asking she was asking for HERSELF. she truly needed to know the answers for her journey. and that in turn helps so many. I hope Drew can tell her full truth as well.

I also married an abusive man. So all I’ve known my whole entire life is abuse. I don’t think I’ll ever truly heal because I’m so broken. And I’m old now.

Couldn’t agree more

She is absolutely correct, if speaking the truth destroys a relationship then it was a relationship that was not to be. Keeping your sense of humor can keep your sanity.

"If saying the truth ends a relationship, its probably a relationship that needed to end" AMAZING! love her, I wrote a fertility book last year and told the truth about my experience with sibling abuse, I shared in detail about the traumatic time I had at my brothers hand, I shared because as a fertility coach, I have had clients who only want one child and when we unpack the "why" of it, I uncover sibling abuse and the fear that they will create that same dynamic for their child. My brother saw the 1 page in the book where I talk about it and not only will he not speak with me, he has instructed my beloved niece and nephew (18 & 24) not to talk with me and he has threatened them saying "if you do talk with her, I will disown you" the cherry on the top of it all is that he told his childrenand wife that it was all a lie and never happened. So, there you go. I never had a good relationship with him, it has always been toxic, I am deeply grateful to both you and Jannette for sharing wisdom, I need to breathe and relax, and move on. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Love, Donna

Seeing the light go on in her own eyes-the recognition that "Yeah-what my mom did wasn't ok. I defended her because she's my parent-but what I was defending wasn't her. It's what I wished she could be." When my abusive parent died, I felt sadness, sure. But I also felt just unmeasurable grief and disappointment at losing the chance that things could have been better. She could have been better-could have healed and found recovery. But she never did. To quote Bojack Horseman: My mother is dead. And everything is worse now.

Coming from a relationship with an abusive mother... this talk really hits home. The guilt, the shame, the loss of a relationship you desperately want and don't want at the same time. I protected my mom for so long, for so long "being afraid to hurt her feelings" took precedent over my own feelings, being afraid of making her look bad, being ungrateful, etc... so much fear and shame to navigate just to come to terms with my own feelings. An abusive mother relationship is so hard to navigate. I went NC with mine, and it was really good for me, but it's still hard. You still miss them, even if they hurt you, you still desire the love of a mother even if she can't give it to you in a healthy way. The struggle is REAL. Hugs to you, ladies.

as a daughter, not being able to have that “normal” relationship with my mom is so disheartening. not only do many people not relate they can’t even understand. it’s hard to come to terms that she’ll never change as narcissists rarely notice they’re doing wrong.

I feel so deeply for Drew.

I so hope she finds a place where she feels safe in telling the entirety of her story one day, knowing the world will only embrace and support her for doing so. From what we do know of her mother, I think it's safe to say that nothing would shock or surprise us at this point. But of course, for Drew this is deeply personal and I can only imagine how scary it is to contemplate telling her whole truth out loud. Maybe she won't feel able until her mother has passed, but I get the feeling she may need to before that happens. You have the love and support of us all, Drew 💕

I think my therapists (both Laura funnily enough) hit the nail on the head. 18 months intensive, £8000 and the best thing I've ever done in my life. I may not own a home, but I'm alive and thriving

The fact that Drew has gone through so much of what her guests have gone through really means that she understands so much more than a regular host

That protectiveness thing hit the nail on the head. A LOT of abusive parents have a lot of family pride and a sense of having loyalty. It took me until senior year of college to openly talk about my dad having alcoholism and until I was almost 30 to talk openly with my sister about my mom's narcissism.

Shame is very complicated. Shame can be the first emotion that LEADS to guilt, and guilt can lead to corrective behavior and learning lessons like Jeanette said whereas shame never evolves to any positive changes and just leads to self spiral. But as long as you can recognize the shame that leads into something good versus the shame that leads to something bad then you’re good. it’s kinda like well you can be ASHAMED of your behavior or actions, which is also guilt. But if you feel SHAMEFUL because of other peoples behavior towards you then that’s bad because you can’t control other peoples actions and that’s what will cause you to spiral.
