Send us a text

🎧 Episode Summary:

Mother’s Day isn’t joyful for everyone. In this powerful episode, we speak to the heartache of growing up without a mother’s love — and explore how to begin healing when nurture never came. Whether you’ve lost your mother or never had her emotionally, this episode offers reflection, strategy, and hope.

📝 “What do we do when the world celebrates what we never had?”

In this intimate and emotionally grounded episode, your host Shivon M.— a licensed psychotherapist, change expert, and life strategist — explores the quiet grief of a motherless Mother’s Day. Whether through loss, estrangement, or emotional absence, many carry invisible wounds that this holiday reopens year after year.

You’ll hear:

  • What it means to grow up without maternal nurture
  • How this absence affects our identity, self-worth, and relationships
  • Why grief for what we never received is valid and worth honoring
  • Practical, intentional steps to begin healing 
  • Guidance for loved ones: how to show up for someone grieving a mother wound

This episode is not about blame. It’s about naming the void with compassion, creating space for reflection, and learning to mother yourself in ways you never received.

Whether this is your story or someone you love is silently navigating this pain — this conversation is an invitation to feel seen, heard, and supported.

Because healing doesn’t happen by accident.
 It happens by intention.
