Episode 6: How to Heal Your Mother Hunger with Kelly McDaniel

In this episode...

It’s a true joy to welcome Kelly McDaniel, author of Mother Hunger: How Adult Daughters Can Understand and Heal from Lost Nurturance, Protection, and Guidance, to Your Permission Prescription this week!

I’ll be honest with you: I can’t get enough of Kelly’s book and I’m so excited for you all to listen to this conversation. For me, Kelly put words to feelings I’ve experienced for years, but didn’t have language to describe.

In this episode, Kelly shares the complex roots of attachment injuries and the common denominator we all experience where there is a lack of nurturing, protection, and guidance.

Prepare to take notes and begin to heal as we discuss a connection so many of us yearn for and how it’s shaped from birth.

Listen to Your Permission Prescription: Episode 6 to learn how to give yourself permission to repair lost attachment and feel nurtured.

What We Discuss & Highlights From Episode 6:

  • 50% of the population has the attachment injury Kelly calls “mother hunger.” She explains how it’s at the root of common issues such as love and food addiction.
  • Kelly discusses the 3 essential elements of mothering (nurturing, protection, and guidance) and how mother hunger is epigenetically transmitted from mother to mother.
  • Nancy shares the ways that mother hunger showed up for her in romantic relationships and her relationship with food — and she even has an aha moment in real time.
  • Learning about mother hunger is NOT another way to blame women. In fact, it helps us heal ourselves and future generations.
