How to Mother When You Weren't Mothered: Breaking Cycles with Intention
How do you give what you never received? In this episode for mothers healing their own childhood wounds while raising children, I explore the challenging journey of conscious parenting when your own template for mothering was broken. From addressing the fear "What if I become like her?" to learning how to create secure attachment when you didn't experience it yourself, this episode offers hope and practical guidance for breaking generational patterns. I share how your hypervigilance about parenting is actually proof you're already different, why perfectionism isn't the goal, and how triggers are opportunities for modeling emotional regulation. Most importantly, I reveal how the act of giving your children what you needed heals your inner child too, creating a ripple effect that changes your entire family line forever.
With this episode you'll be able to:
- Understand that your fear of repeating patterns is proof you're already breaking them
- Learn to create secure attachment even if you didn't experience it as a child
- Recognize and manage parenting triggers when they arise from your own wounds
- Practice emotional regulation techniques to model healthy responses for your children
- Distinguish between living vicariously through your children and healing while parenting
- Build a support village of people who understand generational pattern breaking
- Accept that great mothers acknowledge mistakes, repair, and do better next time
