Mother’s Day can bring lots of complicated emotions. You don’t have to navigate them alone.

The mother-daughter relationship can be complicated, and it can be even more complicated when that relationship involves a mother who is difficult to talk to and be around, such as an emotionally immature mother or a mother struggling with her mental health.

I was inspired to create this workshop after seeing a college’s workshop for women grieving the loss of their deceased mother.

For those who have a difficult relationship with their mother, there’s a different kind of grief. Grieving someone who is still alive but hasn’t been the presence in your life that you wanted, needed, or hoped for.

Understandably, Mother’s Day can bring up these feelings of grief, along with a wide range of other complicated thoughts and emotions.

My hope for this workshop is for you to know that you’re not alone. There are others out there having similar experiences and who have been affected similarly by those experiences.

This workshop will be a safe space for you to connect with others, feel less alone, and learn some skills to help empower and guide you as you continue forward on the journey of navigating life as an adult daughter of a difficult mother.

This workshop is for you if you:

• Have a mother who is emotionally immature, narcissistic, or otherwise a difficult person to talk to/be around

• Experience difficult or complicated emotions around Mother’s Day

• Are open to and could benefit from the support of others who understand

• Want to learn more about self-compassion, reparenting yourself, and other empowerment strategies to enhance your healing and growth
