320: The Mother Wound And Its Link To Yo...

Monica Yates
About this episode

Well we talked all things the daddy wound in episode 318 (linked below), it only makes sense that we unpack the MOMMY wound next, yeah!? 


So that’s what today’s episode is alllllll about! Monica is giving you the nitty gritty on what the mother wound is, how it shows up for both men AND women, and why it might be what’s holding you back from being where you want to be in your life.


Today’s episode covers:


🌹 why the “strong independent woman” blueprint is so prevalent in our generation today

🌹 why trying to earn your parent’s love is a never-ending cycle (that isn’t worth it)

🌹 Monica’s experience with her own mother growing up

🌹 the difference between empowerment & coming home to yourself

🌹 how the mother wound shows up in men vs how it shows up in women

🌹 the importance of somatic work (vs just mindset) for full healing

🌹 how the isolation during covid impacted us and our nervous systems

🌹 why soooo many women are chronic overthinkers

🌹 where a lot of our body image & weight issues come from

🌹 questions to ask yourself to know which program of Monica’s would be best for you
