‘What many people do not realise is that the core issue at the center of women’s empowerment is the mother wound’
BETHANY WEBSTER

‘Difficulty and challenges between mothers and daughters are rampant and widespread but not openly spoken about. The taboo about speaking about the pain of the mother wound is what keeps it in place and keeps it hidden in shadow, festering and out of view.’

I found Bethany’s article Parentified Daughters as Female Leaders; Keys To Your Emergence and it immediately struck a chord.

I knew I simply had to speak to Bethany, to thank her, and find out more about her work and share it with as many women as possible.

So here it is; part 1 of a conversation I had with Bethany on Healing The Mother Wound.

Part 2 goes into the Parentified Daughter.

I hope it’s useful for you. I’d love to know your thoughts, reflections, insights after reading.
