Have you ever wondered why your mother/daughter is such a bitch? Dr. Debra Mandel, nationally renowned psychologist and author of 4 books including the bestselling "Dump That Chump," joins Bryde and Jeremie for a conversation about Dr. Debra’s latest release, “Sassy & Rude, Her New Attitude: A Tough Love Guide for Moms on How to Bring Back The Sugar and Spice in Their Not-so-Nice Adult Daughters”. This conversation centers on the relationship between adult mothers and adult daughters, and this information is for you if you are either of those or anyone who knows and loves a mother daughter duo. The three talk through personal anecdotes and professional insights on themes of shame, power dynamics, shifts in relationship, independence, boundaries, expectations, body image, and more. Dr. Debra provides insights and advice on fostering healthy communication, addressing conflicts, and supporting each other's growth.
Dr. Debra brings over 30 years working clinically with individuals, couples, and families with a range of specialties from relationship and daily life issues to depression, anxiety, eating disorders and addiction, and she speaks on her subject with humour and compassion at the forefront.
