This engaging and interactive talk explores the transformative journey of Matrescence shedding light on the cultural forces shaping motherhood, and reveals the profound truth: “It doesn’t take a village to raise a child; it takes a village to raise a mother.”
By examining motherhood as both a spiritual and cultural institution, this talk delves into themes such as interdependence, shadow work, the dark mother archetype, and the relational growth unique to spiritual-but-not-religious mothers. Drawing on research from Rainbow’s MSc on the meaning of spiritual community to Matrescence, it highlights how isolation and outdated patriarchal norms harm women’s development and family dynamics.
This evening is for anyone seeking to understand the deep impact of culture on motherhood, the collective mother wound, and how healing the Matrescence journey can nurture both mothers and society as a whole.
