Not Your Mama's Book Club

Mother Wound with Lee Irwin

“Great minds discuss ideas. Average Minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people.” Discussion group. All you need is an enquiring mind. Meets on the first Tuesday of every month at 2pm.

Are there parts of yourself you’ve struggled to name – especially the parts about anxiety, shame, and the hunger for love that couldn’t be filled?

Mother Hunger could be the missing piece. This is the invisible wound that emerges from a child’s lack of comfort, safety or guidance from a mother.

Come join Lee Sumner Irwin, founder of Radiant Wise Women and award-winning author, to take a closer look at the four distinct categories of mother hunger and how these unmet needs can echo throughout our adult lives as guilt, self-blame, disordered eating, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or relationship issues.

No book reading required. In this safe space, we will explore how the absence of essential maternal care can create a lifetime of longing that affects our emotional well-being and sense of self.

The journey through mother hunger isn't one we need to walk alone.

Lee will share practical steps for self-nurturing, including simple ways to release stress and make everything easier.
