#10 Healing the Mother Wound with Bethany Webster

Anya Kaats

Feb 03, 2019

Bethany Webster is a writer, transformational coach, international speaker and what you could call a midwife of the heart.

Bethany and I dissect the Mother Wound and delve into its practical manifestations for mothers, daughters and anyone raised in a patriarchal society that views mothers as all bad or all good. We discuss the nuanced and taboo process of coming to terms with our own mother wound including grief, anger and dissolving toxic relationships.
