There's a lot of valuable insight here as to how your relationship with your mother can affect your emotional development and broader coping abilities and resilience. I'm glad I experienced these ideas. I'm glad I'd read Women Who Run With the Wolves previously, as this felt like a natural, every-day applications based extension on that work.

Starting to lose interest. Maybe it would be easier to read this book physically than listening? Not sure. I’m just not taking it in well.

Why on earth is every feminist fiction and non-fiction has to have a heroine that is either lesbian or been in a heterosexual marriage and once that gone super wrong and had a closure she marries a woman (so becomes a lesbian)? Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with someone finding their self and loving a woman, a man, both or neither. My issue is, that it seems that the feminist writers are many times not really fond of men and/or mistaken the healing and caring love between women with romantic love. I'm still waiting for feminist books where we do not hate men and don't blame the current generation of men for the hundreds of years of conditioning of the systems and costumes and the heroine is actually a men loving women.
Ok, that's out. Now a bit more about the book.
It is a must read for all who started their healing journey, might they be men, women or anything in-between or above. The book talks to women and daughters nearly exclusively (bit strange IMO) but I do believe men need to heal their women wound also.
Not mother hating or mother blaming, but showing the real cause of our traumas that is brought through for generations, caused by the system people created.
As with every self-help books it only works if you use the tools and questions. But if you do, it works well. Gentle time consuming self work that worth every minute. Great book.
