This episode features our guest, Sian Crossley - a psychotherapist who specializes in the Mother Wound and is founder of Break the Cycle Coaching.
TOPICS COVERED:
- Her journey - doing her own work while becoming a therapist, discovering her own trauma, finding core aspects of healing, recognizing her own wounds and coping skills, and how motherhood helped her break the cycles
- All routes are valid
- Adapting when authenticity is not safe
- Don't stop questioning why you do what you do; stay curious
- Abstract stuff gets clear and more conscious
- What the Mother Wound is = the gap from what you needed from your mother to what she was able to offer
- Your mother's wounds created her deficits
- The manifestation of problems with self-worth
- Enmeshment and feeling unworthy
- Perfectionism, anxiety, and staying small
- The psychology of how the trauma occurs
- Challenges of healing this type of wound
- How to deal with the "not good enough" feelings
- Why you must allow yourself to grieve and move through the pain
- "It's yours to work through now"
- Steps to move forward: get clear on how you experienced your mother, grief/acceptance, space to begin being your own mother now, and then living intentionally on your own terms
