Listen "Bird Brain | S8E14 (313): Mothering Nature or Masked Neglect?"
Episode Synopsis
We often pride ourselves on being the nurturers—the ones who show up, fix, soothe, and hold space. But what if that instinct to mother others is actually masking our own unmet needs? In this episode, we explore the thin line between compassion and codependency, care and control, nurture and neglect. When you’re always the one pouring into others, who’s replenishing you? Let’s unpack how well-meaning over-giving can disconnect us from our own healing, how people-pleasing becomes mistaken for purpose, and what it really means to mother yourself. If you've ever been praised for being “the strong one” while quietly feeling depleted, this one’s for you.
