Healing the Motherwound: The Hidden Key to Unlocking Your Professional Power
In boardrooms, start-ups, and creative businesses across the globe, many of us are unknowingly carrying something far deeper than strategy blocks or money mindset struggles. It is the motherwound—the unresolved imprint of how we were mothered, how our mothers were mothered, and how our culture systematically separates us from the Primordial Mother: the Earth, community, and our own bodies.
While often spoken about in personal development spaces, the motherwound is rarely acknowledged for how it shows up in our professional lives. Yet it can be the invisible force shaping how we lead, create, and grow our businesses.
How the Motherwound Impacts Professional Life & Business Growth
Fear of visibility and authority
If you grew up silencing your needs to keep peace or survive, stepping into leadership roles or visibility can feel unsafe. You may unconsciously shrink your brilliance, undercharge, or self-sabotage opportunities.Burnout patterns
Many entrepreneurs driven by a longing for approval (often rooted in unmet maternal attunement) over-give, over-deliver, and neglect their own wellbeing. This perpetuates the hustle–collapse cycle that stunts sustainable growth.Difficulty receiving support
The motherwound often imprints the belief: “I must do it all alone.” In business, this translates to struggling with delegation, partnership, and scaling because allowing in support feels threatening.Money and worth
Worthiness wounds inherited from our maternal line can show up in how we price, negotiate, or invest. Healing them is essential to move beyond survival economics and into generative, life-honoring business.
Reclaiming the Inner Primordial Mother
In my Masterclass “Reclaim the Inner Mother”, I guide participants through somatic practices that allow them to meet the unmet parts of themselves with compassion. When we begin to mother ourselves in ways we were never mothered, something extraordinary happens:
We step into leadership with grounded authority rather than fear.
We create from abundance rather than lack.
We model regenerative business practices that honor our bodies, our communities, and the Earth.
This is not only personal healing—it is systemic repair.
The MotherWay: A 16-Week Journey
For those ready to take this work deeper, I created The MotherWay—a 16-week live course that weaves together somatic therapy, decolonised healing, and archetypal remembrance.
It is not another “fix yourself” program. Instead, it is a descent and return: an invitation to step out of patriarchal patterns and into embodied, matriarchal ways of leading, creating, and living.
Through community, ritual, and practice, you will:
Re-pattern your nervous system for safety and expansion.
Dissolve inherited shame, silence, and scarcity.
Root your professional life in resilience, creativity, and authentic authority.
Why Now
We are living through a polycrisis: ecological collapse, economic uncertainty, and systemic breakdowns. The old ways of doing business—extractive, hierarchical, disconnected—are failing.
The world doesn’t just need more entrepreneurs. It needs leaders who are deeply re-mothered—leaders who can create life-honoring businesses and communities that thrive.
MotherWay begins on the 20th September 2025….
This is your invitation to take the brave step of tending your motherwound so you can expand into the leader, creator, or business owner you are meant to be.
