Summary
In this powerful episode, host Emily Cleghorn addresses the shame and self-judgment trauma-surviving mothers experience when their nervous systems become overwhelmed. Emily compassionately distinguishes between mom guilt and mom shame, reminding listeners that reactive moments reflect nervous system responses — not character flaws. Rather than striving to "fix" themselves, she encourages mothers to learn their body's language, tune inward with curiosity, and separate their triggers from their identity. A deeply affirming episode reminding every mama: you are not broken — you are healing.Take the quiz here: https://freebie.mamahoodaftertrauma.ca/calmquiz If you’re ready to go deeper and connect with a community of women who get it, I’d love to invite you into the Rising Room—our safe space for mamas navigating healing, growth, and motherhood after trauma. https://www.patreon.com/c/MamahoodAfterTrauma 💬 And if you’ve got a story, insight, or wisdom to share, I’m always looking for new voices for the podcast!
