No one likes to bleed all over people. And when you first start counseling and old wounds reopen, you may feel like you're doing just that.
So, except for your support circle, you hold back a lot.
But as your wounds heal, is there a way to serve from your scars? Does it make you an imposter? Does your story even matter?
Tap in and find out.
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.
