All tagged the mother wound

Often, as women, our roles start to shift as we expand, and we find ourselves mothering our mothers in very subtle ways. In our expansion, we tend to take on the role of a mother to our mothers. Sometimes, it’s not that we want it to happen, but we automatically find ourselves doing it, especially when we have the finances and the means.

Yanga helps professional women of color feel seen, achieve balance and rest so they can tap into their own magic and limitlessness.
