Me and My Man. What's Dad Got to Do with It? How to Overcome Parental Influence, Heal Childhood Trauma, and Maintain Love

Zhanna Ospanova — a certified coach with over 10 years of experience, a specialist in family relationships, NLP master, candidate of economic sciences, author of training programs for women.

Why do you keep choosing the "wrong" man? Why do you tolerate what makes you unhappy? What prevents you from building a relationship where you will be happy? Why do you lack the strength and courage to sever a connection that has outlived its usefulness? Why do all men around you seem "the same"? If you, like Zhanna Ospanova, have asked yourself these questions, then this book is for you.

The author explains in detail that the answers often lie in childhood, specifically in the relationship with the father. So why does dad matter? The image of the father becomes the source of many childhood traumas and patterns that seamlessly control the life of an adult woman and her relationships with men. In this book, you will find a detailed analysis of situations, useful practices, and additional comments from a practicing psychologist to understand yourself, work through the past, and finally gain the freedom to choose happy and healthy relationships. The book will be your guide to liberation and a new life. It is like an open conversation with a close friend who is not afraid to tell the truth, no matter how it is.

Thanks to this book you will:

• learn how childhood traumas and the figure of the father affect relationships with men in adulthood;
• understand why you choose "the wrong" men; • stop tolerating what makes you unhappy;
• receive advice and exercises from a practicing psychologist and free yourself from the burden of old grievances and patterns.
