"I need to speak with you in a way that you can he "I need to speak with you in a way that you can hear me." 🗣 💗 

It is so important to embrace a level of empathy and self-awareness in terms of self-responsibility.

What are we really responsible for?
What's within our power and what isn't?
And what can we change, and what can we not change?
How can we be mindful of all of this in our circumstances?

Proceed with no blame and no shame. Work together, mother and adult daughter, to move forward into a better relationship.
