If you feel like you’re constantly having to walk on eggshells around your mom – trying not to upset her, if you obsess over getting her approval or being accepted by her,  if she’s critical of everything you do and those things are causing you unrest, or if her absence (physically or emotionally) is/was very apparent and that’s causing you discontent, if the very thought of being in her presence causes you anxiety you may have a mother daughter wound. Tap in to this episode as Shirl and Natty peel back another layer of Mary Jane Paul's cape and mask to shine a light on the mother daughter relationship that gradually grew into a mother daughter wound.   And be sure to join us in the Shades of Strong Facebook Community to share your thoughts with us.
