In episode 176 Cath was joined by Dr Helena Vissing. Helena shared her path to motherhood, healing from birth and her perinatal specialisation. We talked about her book ‘Somatic Maternal Healing’, some of the concepts from it, sensory considerations and maternal bodyfulness and much more.
In this episode Cath talks about getting to know and understand our own family history to get more of a picture of what we are dealing with and carrying. She shares some of her maternal and paternal family history talking about premature death, family separation, loss, loss of place, grief and also an explanation of why it is helpful to understand our history and how it can work to reduce shame.
Cath was joined by Dr Chloe Bedford this week and they talked about Chloe's path to motherhood, how much pregnancy can bring up, how Chloe tends to herself in motherhood, running and how her relationship with running has changed as she has grown herself up in motherhood.
In our first episode after the summer holidays, Cath speaks to the complexities of recovering from chronic stress, how we need to approach it (and ourselves) in a different way, how our own shame may exacerbate stress and how ADHD can make things harder.
In this episode Cath talks about her concept 'Giving Up on Being Good' and the 'Good Girl Grid'. The experience of emotional neglect produces a set of coping strategies based on our stress responses and unwinding these as we grow and develop as adults is really important so that we can live our own TRUE lives.
