Bold Beautiful Borderline

BPD Book Club Chapter 7 (feat Aaron)

Sara Amundson & Laurie Edmundson Season 1 Episode 136

Welcome to your newest BBB mini-series!! Every Wednesday you will get a bonus episode until we've read EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER of the book Stop Walking on Eggshells that was republished as a 2nd edition in 2010.

Here's the deal - we are reviewing this book from a critical lens, but we only have so much ability to be critical as we're reading it from the perspective of someone having BPD and the partner of someone with BPD. These are our opinions and we hope to teach others how stigmatizing language damages us and the people who love those of us with BPD. We also point out some of the benefits of this book. This mini-series is NOT a shit on this book, nor is it a recommendation of this book. It is simply a critical review of a book that most people who have a BPD family member, partner, loved one, or friend has been recommended.

This week we are reviewing the sixth chapter of this book. PLUS Laurie and Aaron go on a little impulsive adventure mid recording.... it was delish
