Motherhood is often shaped by the beliefs and expectations we've inherited—but what if we could rewrite the script? 

In this episode of the Heartful Parent Podcast, I’m chatting with Dr. Gertrude Lyons, an author, Life Coach and creator of Rewrite the Mother Code LLC. Together, we’re exploring how personal growth, emotional responsibility, and self-awareness can transform the way we parent—not just our children, but also ourselves. 

Dr. Lyons challenges the traditional ‘mother code’ and offers a fresh perspective on what it means to mother, extending beyond biological parenting to include all the ways we nurture and care in our lives.

If you’ve ever felt the need to break free from outdated parenting expectations and embrace a more authentic, fulfilling path, you’ll walk away from this episode with many thoughtful tidbits. Dr. Lyons shares practical steps for reparenting ourselves, prioritizing self-care, and recognizing the power of rewriting our own stories. 

And she gives us a sneak peek into her upcoming book, Rewrite the Mother Code: From Sacrifice to Stardust, which promises to be a game-changer for anyone navigating the complexities of motherhood. 

Don’t miss this inspiring discussion—it’s time to mother on your own terms!
