If your heart feels tender around this time, this episode and meditation is for you.   We explore the often-invisible \u201cmother wound\u201d\u2014not what was said, but what wasn\u2019t. It lives in the quiet spaces: the comfort that never came, the sensitivity that was too much, the silence you learned to keep just to feel safe.   These early emotional imprints shape our adult patterns: \u2013 People-pleasing \u2013 Silencing your truth \u2013 Ignoring your needs \u2013 Struggling to set boundaries \u2013 Feeling like you\u2019re too much or never enough   As a self-love coach, I help women notice how their inner critic was often inherited\u2014absorbed from caregivers and culture. In this episode, I guide you through a gentle process to begin healing: my signature CUDDLE UP Method, which invites you to sit with what hurts, listen to what needs love, and become the supportive presence you always deserved.   Your inner child doesn\u2019t need fixing\u2014she needs you to stay and be with the big emotions that perhaps your caregivers couldn't.   Come home to yourself, one loving breath at a time in this guided meditation to cuddle up with your inner child.   Sending you lots and lots of love, Audrey   Mentioned in this episode:   My signature CUDDLE UP Method (from my upcoming book) Healing practices for self-trust and emotional safety Why your inner critic isn\u2019t your fault\u2014and how to transform it   Join me for Upcoming Retreats & Offerings: Self-Love Retreat \u2013 July 21 in the Pacific Northwest: A day of healing, community, embodiment, and soul nourishment.
