Healing from a mother wound is not something you finish and forget. It is a daily commitment to caring for your inner child, the part of you that carries the pain, fear, and shame from your past. Even after therapy, journaling, or cutting ties, healing continues because your younger self needs ongoing love and patience.

Trusting yourself, especially if you grew up feeling unsafe, is hard but possible. Sometimes your emotions can mislead you, so it is important to also use your mind and seek trusted perspectives to understand real danger. Finding something or someone you deeply care about can help you stay grounded and protect yourself.

In the end, healing the mother wound is a lifelong journey of loving and protecting yourself one small, patient step at a time.

In this episode, I respond to some of the rawest and most vulnerable questions from listeners about healing from mother wounds. Together, we explore how family dynamics shape our inner child, why healing is a lifelong process, and how to cultivate trust and safety within ourselves. Join me for an honest, unfiltered conversation about trauma, resilience, and the courageous path toward freedom beyond past pain.
