From the sales desk to the boardroom, too many women feel as though
they are "giving from a place of empty," constantly putting their
wants and needs last in a culture that expects them to give and
never take. If this describes you, take heart! The source of your
dilemma might well spring from the relationship you have (or had)
with your mother, your daughter, or both. In The Mother-Daughter
Puzzle, Rosjke Hasseldine, an internationally recognized expert on
the mother-daughter relationship, provides a step-by-step guide on
how to connect the dots between what's happening in your own
mother-daughter relationship and how society and your generational
family treats women. Rosjke's book teaches you how to map your
mother-daughter history, an eye-opening way to help provide answers
to your dilemma. From this mapping, you'll also learn how to raise
your entitlement to speak and be heard, and to challenge and change
harmful sexist beliefs and cultural stereotypes, so you can enjoy
an emotionally connected, mutually supportive mother-daughter bond.
"The Silent Female Scream" teaches "how to believe that as a woman
you have the right to be heard, valued and respected, and to know
that anything less is just not okay." Through case studies and
discussion, the author exposes that women's sense of self-worth and
entitlement to speak their needs, especially in relationships, is
an area that feminism has ignored to its peril. By looking at the
legacy of emotional silence that many women have inherited from
long before grandmother's day, she warns that emotional silence
damages the mother-daughter relationship, women's relationships
with themselves and each other, and their equality and visibility.
Using key questions, the author guides the reader to wake-up to her
own learned silence and teaches a language of entitlement and
visibility that has until now been missing for women.
