“Infantilization ruins one's ability to trust their own instincts. Unfortunately, it does get easier though the more you do it, as hard as it can be. With prayer and effort on your part, you really can conquer the damage done by infantilization.”
Ever felt like your parents were trying to keep you from growing up? In this eye-opening episode, Cynthia Bailey-Rug tackles the subtle yet damaging tactic of infantilization.

She suggests turning to God for guidance and exploring your Myers-Briggs personality type as tools for self-discovery. It's a journey that requires effort and prayer, but Cynthia assures that breaking free from the chains of infantilization is possible. Tune in to learn how to trust your instincts and build a life that's truly your own.
