Welcome to another episode of the Women in the Middle podcast!
This week’s episode features an interview with Karen C.L. Anderson, someone who is an expert at creating inspiration and advice for difficult mother/daughter relationships.
It’s another interview in my series called Weekly Wow. Weekly Wow introduces you to amazing women who have something relevant to share with women in the middle.
Specifically, today’s episode introduces you to Karen C.L. Anderson, who is a Master Certified Life Coach (certified at The Life Coach School) and also the author of the book, The Peaceful Daughter’s Guide to Separating from a Difficult Mother, which, by the way, is an international bestseller, and has sold over 130,000 copies (no longer available).
Karen’s new book, Difficult Mothers, Adult Daughters: A Guide for Separation, Liberation and Inspiration is helping so many people as well and is widely available. Sorting out the mother/daughter relationship is relevant for so many women in the middle and I’m so excited for Karen to share her knowledge and perspective with you today.
