The mother-daughter-in-law relationship stands as one of family life's most complex dynamics, often fraught with unspoken expectations, misunderstandings, and deep emotional triggers. In this revealing conversation, master coach Janet Quinlan pulls back the curtain on why these relationships become strained and offers transformative strategies to move from tension to genuine connection.
We discuss:
• Healthy mother-daughter-in-law relationships involve recognizing you're building a new relationship that takes time to develop
• "Empathetic curiosity"
• Setting boundaries from a place of love
• Emotional independence
• Reframing negative thoughts
• Prayer for your in-law is a powerful practice that softens resentment and opens your heart
