The concept of a “self” is foreign country for women healing from Mother Hunger. Without a safe early attachment relationship, forming a “self” is congested with survival strategies. As a result, many women are without an “inner compass” to direct life choices. We flounder through life responding to the needs of others, addictively chasing happiness without self-awareness. Unfortunately, there is no short cut to well-being…the “persistent nagging” will stay by our side until we lean into healing Mother Hunger, and reclaim our buried “self”.
