Mother Mayhem: For Daughters of Narcissistic or Emotionally Limited Mothers

116. Healing the Mother Wound Feels Endless & Often Sucks. Keep Going.


Listen Later

Some days healing feels like progress. Other days, it feels like hell.

In this episode, Mayhem gets real about what recovery actually looks like for daughters of narcissistic and emotionally limited mothers: the moments that make you question whether any of this work is worth it, and the deeper truth underneath the exhaustion.

We’re digging into what it means to keep going when the pain doesn’t ever seem to disappear.

You’ll hear:

Why healing the mother wound can feel endless (and why that’s normal)

How competence becomes armor and what happens when it stops working

Why calm can feel unsafe and joy can feel like betrayal

How grief and growth can coexist without canceling each other out

What it actually means to be healing, even when it still hurts
This is your reminder that healing isn’t about doing it perfectly. It's about staying with yourself, especially on the days you want to quit.

And you don't have to do any of this alone. Join our community or find us in Group. Learn more: MayhemDaughters.com
