Every child wants their mother—even when the relationship is complicated. I Got It From My Momma explores the Mother Wound, inherited patterns, grief, and self-reclamation. Through personal reflection, psychological insight, and compassionate truth-telling, this essay examines how family legacies shape us and how healing begins when we choose what to carry forward—and what ends with us.
What happens when Mother’s Day hurts more than it heals? This powerful reflection explores the unspoken grief of emotionally immature, absent, narcissistic, or wounding mothers—and the sacred work of learning to mother yourself with compassion, boundaries, truth, and repair.
