Healing the Motherline
How is your relationship with your mother?This week, I’m talking to psychologist, Vanessa Wallace about her program, “Healing the Mother line.”Vanessa explains how growing up in a dysfunctional relationship with our mothers can cause us to adopt behaviours such as people pleasing and “good girl” syndrome, or carry deep seated anger and resentment which we then pass on to the next generation.We talk about inherited beliefs and self acceptance as a better goal than self esteem. And how by letting go of resentment and anger we can break the chain.Find out more about Vanessa’s retreats, both Healing the Mother Line and Anxiety and Depression Recovery on her website.

Like all transitions, midlife can be messy & sad & glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone & somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to?I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50 and I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives.The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time. Because we only become invisible when when we stop seeing ourselves.See The Midlife & Beyond section of my website for more information and resources to help you navigate change.And see my LinkTree, where you can also buy my books and keep in touch by subscribing to my Newsletter.*This is an affiliate link, which means that if you should book one of Vanessa’s retreats, I might receive a small payment, at no extra cost to you.
