Can I join if I can’t attend live?

This workshop is a live, relational experience — and the live element is essential to how it works. If you know in advance that you won't be able to attend, please don't sign up. There is no recording.

Is this suitable if I’m currently in therapy?

Absolutely. More than that, it will accelerate your shifts and results from your therapy and increase your self-authority in your relationship with therapists.

Is this for me if I’m estranged from my mother or she’s no longer alive?

YES! We carry the relationship with our mother inside ourselves, no matter the level of contact we have with her in our physical life. This workshop can be your path to finding closure. And if you're estranged fro myour siblings this workshop can be awonderful place for you to experince a reliefe and reassurances

Is this for me if I’ve never experienced somatic work before?

This is exactly for you if you haven’t done any somatic work. You’ll be guided every step of the way and I’m confident that you’ll find it easy and enjoyable.

What is somatic work?

Somatic means body-based. The mother wound isn't just a story you carry in your mind — it's a pattern your nervous system learned, e.g the pattern to carry the emotional responsibility over your relationship with your mother. Somatic practices work directly with that pattern, which is why the shift feels different from talk therapy.

Will this be confidential?

Yes. I take safety very seriously and we'll start t he workshop with clear guidance on how to protect each other during our time together, Also, there's no recording so there's no for this reason

What if the workshop stirs up something difficult?

This workshop is held as a safe, supported container—you won't be alone with whatever arises. This is a two-hour workshop so the somatic practices are specifically designed to help your nervous system meet difficult material but just like tasting something, without being overwhelmed by it.

Is there a refund if I can't attend?

This is like a pop-up workshop where the time-frame for registration is very short. Refunds will not be offered as it won’t be possible to find someone to take your place.

A Relational & Somatic Workshop For UnderMothered Women

IT'S NOT ABOUT FORGIVENESS

You’re Done Carrying the Burden of Trying

to Fix, Forgive or Understand your Mother

And are Ready to Recentre Around Your Own Damn Life

You've grown into an accomplished woman despite everything your mother couldn't give you.

And somewhere you've always known that carrying the weight of her emotional world was never meant to be your burden.

It’s time to de-centre your mother’s feelings and the exhausting work of trying to change her — and finally heal your mother wound

Registration open on Friday, April 17th

EARLY BIRD SPECIAL BONUS:

1:1 FREE SESSION FOR THE FIRST 8 WOMEN

Workshop happens on Friday, April 24 5-7pm CET. Investment: 79chf (~99$)

You’ve been to therapy, cultivated spiritual practice, had a conversation with your mum or just ignored the cringe and burning frustration each time someone says “you only have one mother, she did her best, why won't you forgive/accept/understand her.“

And because you probably heard those comments from your therapist too, for a long time you focused on finding resolve for your mother wound by becoming the emotionally mature one, the psychologically stable and understanding one.

But you can’t keep hitting the same wall when you realise you still haven’t “forgiven” – or found peace with your complex relationship with your mum.

Here’s what no one tells you:

Forgiving, understanding or accepting your mother was never your responsibility to carry.

It was placed on you — by your mother, by family, by a society that needed you to make peace so everyone else could be comfortable.

And every time someone said it, the real wound widened a little more.

After working with dozens of women like you from around the world I’ve witnessed the one thing that leads to finally healing your mother wound and it’s not forgiveness.

I’ve seen how crucial it is for women to de-centre their mum and everyone’s messages about forgiveness and acceptance so they can finally find a sense of completion and restore inner authority

Hi, I'm Shelly

A trauma-informed, Hakomi therapist

And I never planned on becoming an expert on dysfunctional relationships between mothers and daughters.

After my mother left me homeless at the age 16, with no dolls or picture album to remember my albeit neglectful and abusive childhood, all I wanted to do was run away as far as possible from looking back.

When my “perfect married life” didn’t change my peanut-size self-esteem, and the unsolicited comments people shared about my relationship with my mother kept me feeling invisible, I finally started healing my mother wound I turned my childhood story on its head, ending up becoming the mother wound therapist I now wish I’d had years ago.

And because I’ve spent hours in the company of beautiful women like you over the past two decades, helping dozens of women from around the world heal the wounds of a complex relationship with their mother, I know better than anyone how solitary the mother wound struggle can be.

I also know how shaming and judgmental it can feel when someone expects an undermothered daughter to take on the emotional burden and responsibility to forgive her mother.

This workshop is for you if:

🌻You’re done being told to forgive, accept or understand — and are ready to try something else that leads to a sense of completion

🌻 You’ve done therapy, read the books, named your mother wound issues — and want to actually get to the healing part

🌻 You understand your mother wound — but understanding it hasn't shifted it. You’re ready to shift from feeling ignored and dismissed to reclaiming your inner authority and agency

🌻 You feel the weight of the relationship even when she isn't in the room

🌻 You’re tired of your healing depending on waiting for something she may never give you

🌻 You want first-hand experience of what somatic mother wound work actually feels like
