07-03-25 Come Back to Love® Radio: How the Mother Wound Impacts Your Relationships
In this deeply moving and healing episode, we explore the tender terrain of the Mother Wound—the complex emotional imprint left by the ways we were mothered (or not), and how it shapes our lives.
Joining us this week is Shelly Sharon a certified Hakomi therapist and somatic Buddhist psychology coach …. I do not present myself as an intuitive guide. Together, we discuss how the Mother Wound shows up in our own lives—in particular how shame is so prominent and creates a lifetime of holding secrets. Part 2 of the episode addresses how we can begin to gently unravel the wound and heal.
We focus on:
- What the Mother Wound really is (and what it isn’t)
- How it impacts our relationships
- Why safety, nourishment, and wise inner guidance are essential for healing
- Practical ways to begin re-mothering yourself with love and presence
Whether you’re navigating grief, reclaiming your voice, or simply seeking to soften your experience with your own mother wound, this episode offers a sacred space for healing. You’ll leave with a sense of permission to trust your own rhythm—and to begin the slow, beautiful work of coming home to yours
Bio: After many years of running away from her traumatic childhood, where she suffered infant starvation, emotional and physical neglect and abandonment, Shelly turned her life story on its head.
Shelly has been a professional ballet dancer, a coffeeshop owner and a sought after social change strategist and independent researcher, but it was only when she started devoting herself to intense meditation practice and Buddhist psychology studies with leading international teachers that she owned her mother wound — and her appetite for healing and serving others in healing opened up.

Shelly’s a cat mum and in a loving relationship with her soulmate.
