89 - MOTHER WOUND / MOMMY ISSUES- Pt. The Toxic, Attacking or 'Tidy' Mother

Move over Daddy Issues, Mommy Issues is in town - yet no one is talking about them. Today, Louise & Stephanie Therapy explore the Mother Wound. They discuss:

What the mother wound is, how it shows up differently to the father wound

How the mother wound runs deep through generations

The attacking mother, the critical or toxic mother

The OCD mother and the connection to cooking, cleaning and ironing

How mothers try to maintain control

The identity as a 'mother' and how tied people get tied to that

They also talk about the topics of forgiveness and when it is, and is not, the right route of action.   40% OFF YOUR HEALING GIRL OUTFIT WITH LILYBOD This episode is sponsored by Lilybod. To redeem your 40% off click here, using code ⭐ OPENHOUSE40 ⭐ at check out:
