When you see a potter fashioning clay on the wheel, it’s not a pretty sight.
It’s a wet, splashy mess and that’s on top of the varying degrees of pressure needed to shape it into the potter’s vision. And that’s before it gets fired in the kiln!
The result is a ceramic masterpiece that’s as beautiful as it is durable. But the process is ugly.
What do you do when healing from childhood trauma looks like that piece of clay on the wheel? Lean in and let’s talk about it.
THE PODCAST
MOTHERHOOD UNMASKED is for moms, like you, struggling to survive your own childhood trauma in addition to the typical demands of motherhood, but hiding your struggle behind a mask.
If you’re raising children while carrying unresolved childhood wounds from traumatic experiences, including abuse, abandonment, and neglect and you struggle with expressing compassion, showing up with confidence, and connecting with your child, this podcast will inspire your own healing journey and empower you to break the negative cycles threatening your family.
Change starts with you believing that when it comes to you being the mother of your children; you are the woman for the job. And I love empowering you to do it.
YOUR HOST
Hi, I’m Vanessa. A pediatrician, stay at home mom of three, and multi-trauma overcomer, hosting real talk, including the childhood trauma keeping you from confidently showing up as the mom your children need. Because I'm over you suffocating under “the everything’s fine” mask.
