Securely Attached Why mothers need to be held too: Somatic work and the circle of nurture with Lisa Rombach
Somatic practitioner and founder of Circle of Nurture, Lisa Rombach, joins me for a deeply grounding conversation about motherhood, the nervous system, and why mothers need support just as much as the children they care for.
Together, we explore:
- What somatic work actually is, in everyday language, and why it's not as abstract as it may sound.
- How motherhood changes our relationship with our bodies and sense of self.
- Why self-care often falls short and what truly helps mothers feel replenished.
- The role of community, presence, and being witnessed in reducing burnout.
- How being held and supported as a mother quietly shapes how our children feel safe and secure.
This episode will help mothers feel less alone, more understood, and more grounded in their own experience. You don't need to fix yourself or try harder, sometimes the most powerful shift comes from being supported and held.
