In this powerful episode of Casa De Confidence, Julie sits down with psychotherapist and somatic practitioner Inga Larson to explore what it really means to grow up as the child of emotionally immature or personality-disordered parents—and how that early experience shapes confidence, belonging, and identity.

Inga shares her deeply personal story of navigating childhood anxiety, performative confidence, homelessness in her twenties, and eventually discovering healing through somatic therapy, social work, and parts work.

Together, Julie and Inga unpack:

What emotionally immature parenting actually looks like
The difference between performative confidence and embodied self-trust
How trauma gets stored in the body
Why many adults feel disconnected from themselves
The power of somatic healing practices
How secure attachment transforms relationships
What true belonging really means
How to stop living in survival mode

Inga also introduces her Defying Gravity course for adult children of emotionally immature parents and shares simple grounding practices anyone can begin today.

If you’ve ever felt like you were the “parentified child,” the performer, the fixer, or the one who had to hold everything together—this conversation will resonate deeply.
