08 Jul 246: The Eldest Daughter Wound—And How to Finally Release It with Jasmine Braxton
If you were the responsible one, the fixer, the emotional glue—this episode is for you.
In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by coach and guide Jasmine Braxton to explore the complex reality of being the eldest daughter. From carrying unspoken family expectations to feeling like you have to be the strong one all the time, we talk about how this role shapes your identity, relationships, and self-worth—and how to begin the healing process.
Jasmine breaks down the “eldest daughter wound,” how it plays out in adulthood, and why awareness alone isn’t enough—you need real tools to create emotional safety and boundaries.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
✅ What the eldest daughter wound is and how it shows up in your life
✅ The link between perfectionism, people-pleasing, and childhood roles
✅ Why it’s so hard to rest when you’re used to being “the strong one”
✅ How to set boundaries without guilt
✅ Tools to reclaim your identity outside of who you take care of
If you’ve ever felt like you’re responsible for everyone else’s emotions, this episode will feel like both validation and a permission slip to choose you.
