❗️Being a ‘good daughter’ in a toxic family often means sacrificing your own needs—and sometimes even the needs of your partner or children—to meet unrealistic expectations. It means silencing your voice to keep the peace, putting their feelings above your own, and carrying the weight of guilt for not being enough, no matter how much you give. But at what cost? When the role of a ‘good daughter’ demands self-betrayal, it’s not love—it’s control disguised as loyalty. I’ve learned that breaking this cycle isn’t selfish; it’s necessary. Choosing my own healing and the well-being of my family over their impossible demands was the hardest and most freeing decision I’ve ever made. ❤️‍🩹If this hits home, it’s a sign you may have been raised in a dysfunctional family dynamic. 📖 My guide can help you understand these patterns, set boundaries, and begin your journey toward healing.
