Why do they hold back professionally and personally? What fuels the uncertainty and lack of confidence so many women often feel? In this paradigm-shifting book, leading feminist thinker Bethany Webster identifies the source of women's trauma. She calls it the Mother Wound--the systemic disenfranchisement of women by the patriarchy--and reveals how this cycle is perpetuated by wounded mothers who unconsciously pass on damaging beliefs and behaviors to their daughters.</p><p>In her workshops, online courses, and talks, Webster has helped countless women re-examine their lives and their relationships with their mothers, giving them the vocabulary to voice their pain, and encouraging them to share their experiences. In this manifesto and self-help guide, she offers practical tools for identifying the manifestations of the Mother Wound in our daily life and strategies we can use to heal ourselves and prevent our daughters from enduring the same pain. In addition, she offers step-by-step advice on how to reconnect with our inner child, grieve the mother we didn't have, stop people-pleasing, and, ultimately, transform our heartache and anger into healing and self-love.</p><p>Revealing how women are affected by the Mother Wound, even if they don't personally identify as survivors, <em>Discovering the Inner Mother</em> revolutionizes how we view mother-daughter relationships and gives us the inspiration and guidance we need to improve our lives and ultimately create a more equitable society for all.</p><br/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Webster candidly shares her own transformative journey and offers questions for reflection and exercises to allow readers to better come to terms with their past...

I loved Bethany Webster's book."--Chely Wright, songwriter, musician, and author of<em> Like Me</em><br><br>"Webster has created a comprehensive mapping of the toxic mother-daughter dynamic, its shaping of the daughter's 'script, ' and how the daughter may rescue her journey and outgrow the limitations of her childhood experience by accessing her own 'Inner Mother.'
