96. Bethany Webster: Healing The Mother Wound


Listen Later

Bethany is a writer, international speaker, transformational coach, and author of the must-read book, Discovering the Inner Mother. She is considered the global expert on healing the mother wound, something we inherit to varying degrees as women living in a patriarchy.

She started blogging in 2013 about the Mother Wound and quickly experienced worldwide demand for her work. Through blending research on intergenerational trauma, feminist theory, and psychology with her personal story, Bethany's work is the result of decades of research and her own journey of healing. Bethany speaks, consults and mentors around the world sharing her growing body of work that is raising the standard of women’s leadership and personal development.

We talk about... 

  • What inspired Bethany to work with the mother wound 
  • What the mother wound is and how it shows up
  • What a daughter can do if their mother isn’t willing to change 
  • The goal of healing the mother wound 
  • The power of inner mothering 
  • What happens when you self-silence your feelings regarding your mother
  • What keeps the mother wound in place 
  • Reasons women feel guilty for healing their mother wound
  • What forms true love and intimacy
  • Whether or not you can heal your mother wound while still maintaining contact with your mother
  • What the mother wound has to do with self-sabotage
