Nourishing the Mother

By: Bridget Wood & Julie Tenner
  • Summary

  • Mothering can be an inspired journey to our most glittering, authentic, passionate, creative and connected selves. Through the mirror offered to us by our children, we are taken to every hurt, unmet need, and also every joy and excitement we’ve ever experienced. We want every woman and mother to give themselves and those around them the compassion, love and healing they so readily offer their children, but rarely allow themselves. Journey with us as we discuss the many layers of being a mother today, where we have come from and where we want to go. Learn tools to connect with yourself, offer compassion to those parts we’d rather deny and get back in love with yourself, motherhood and who you are as a feminine woman.

  • NTM 465: Why is mid-life such a monumental relationship fuck-up?
    May 20 2024

    What is it with the “mid-life crisis”? And why do relationship break-downs often bear the brunt of it?

    When your shut-down becomes apathetic, and you’ve given up on bringing your needs into the relationship…and then the relationship ends, often, he’s blindsided.

    Typically, when you blow up a relationship, you’re seeking a release from an overburdened, over-stressed life. What would it be like, if you considered these things first, before you make a big decision…?

  • NTM 463: Building the capacity to mother the way we WEREN’T mothered - Part 2, Julie’s lens
    May 6 2024

    When we’re trying so hard to mother in ways that we were not mothered, we can find we exhaust ourselves at the altar of ‘perfection’. What would it look like to stop parenting from a place of lack or fear, and start parenting from a place of love and wellbeing. Let’s find out…

    In this episode we discuss:

    - The need to overperform to feel okay

    - Parenting from a place of lack, fear and anxiety

    - Being socialised into intensive mothering, with an endless capacity

    - Venomous blame cycles, vs overflow of service where we feel balanced and fulfilled

    - Pushing and performing, vs feeling good in your motherhood - We adapt to the environment, privilege included

    - They will not appreciate what their ‘set point’ is - We can’t save our children from having voids

    - Make sure you take your wellbeing with you

    - Have areas of your life that are nurtured outside of your children

    - Taking separation personally, and clawing your relationship back

    - Looking at your child’s movement towards you and away from you as normal, rather than ending up in guilt and shame
