Some patterns don’t start as choices—they start as coping. We open a brave, practical conversation about the mother wound: how the gap between what you needed and what you received shaped your nervous system, and how to gently, steadily change that wiring now. Without blame or rehashing every painful moment, we map the real terrain—attachment, attunement, and the lifelong echoes that touch everything from stress to body image, money, intimacy, and spirituality.
Drawing on years of somatic yoga therapy, I share how acknowledgement regulates the system, why nurture–protect–guide is a powerful framework for self-repair, and what reparenting looks like off the page and in the body. Expect concrete, doable tools: orienting practices to signal safety, breath patterns that downshift urgency, micro-habits that build capacity, and boundary scripts that protect your energy. We also talk about the role of privilege and safety, when professional support is vital, and how to interrupt the myth of “no time” with two-minute rituals that actually stick.
For mothers healing while raising kids, we lean into presence over perfection, the magic of repair, and the surprising power of play during hard moments. You’ll leave with language for your inner world, practices for your daily life, and permission to move at the pace of your inner knowing. If tenderness is rising as you listen, try the simple question we return to again and again: What do I want, and what do I need, right now?
