So many high-achieving women are secretly living their lives to make mom proud—saying yes when they want to say no, feeling guilty when they dare to set boundaries, and measuring their worth by someone else’s approval. In this episode, I sit down with psychotherapist and author Katherine Fabrizio to unpack The Good Daughter Syndrome—and how it shows up in your marriage, your parenting, and your leadership.
We’re talking subtle emotional control, guilt-drenched expectations, and the exact steps you can take to finally break free from this cycle. If your mom still has the power to ruin your day—or you’re terrified you might be repeating the same patterns with your own daughter—this one’s for you.
