In this edition of Inside Wise Women's Wisdom, we’re exploring how shame shows up around motherhood—when we don’t fit the picture-perfect narrative, when we grieve, when we long to be seen, or when we choose a path that doesn't include children at all.
Inside, I offer psychoeducation on shame and motherhood, a creative experiential to express your feelings and thoughts, a playlist for emotional exploration, and Wise Women’s Wisdom for reclaiming Mother’s Day on your own terms.
