An online group for women based upon the groundbreaking work of Kelly McDaniel and her book, “Mother Hunger: How Adult Daughters Can Understand & Heal from Lost Nurturance, Protection, & Guidance”.

Mother Hunger® Online Group Details

Over the course of six weeks, we will define Mother Hunger® as we explore the importance of maternal nurturance, protection, and guidance and what happens if daughters don’t experience these vital elements during childhood. We’ll study the science behind Mother Hunger®, attachment, and complex trauma, and learn what we can do as adults to begin healing from this attachment injury.

*Please note: The online group is open only to those who identify as women.

What we'll cover:

  • We'll define Mother Hunger® and examine the science behind this attachment injury, including the role of developmental trauma and cultural messages that influence women and young girls.

  • We'll discuss the importance of maternal nurturance, protection, and guidance... and what happens when daughters don't receive these vital elements in childhood, or if we don't receive them consistently.

  • We'll explore the connections between Mother Hunger and love addiction, disordered eating, and dysfunctional relationship patterns.

  • We'll discuss complex trauma (CPTSD) and Third Degree Mother Hunger®.

  • ... and we'll learn how to begin healing from Mother Hunger®.
