In this video, I talk about the most common form of the mother wound that I see in my coaching sessions.

Most traditional men were raised by a stay at home mother who was very sweet and caring, but who was also overwhelmed with running the house. So she couldn't actually give him the amount of emotional attention and calmness that he craved as a young boy. He felt a degree of isolation from her. And, he usually noticed in his early years that she was treated as an inferior by his father. The combination of sensing the stress in his mother and not receiving the warm connection that he wanted from her + seeing her not being treated with respect and affection by his father, set him up to become a highly wounded man, who learned to relate to women in a damaged and disconnected way.

Some men were raised by a single-mom, or a mother who was dominant over his father in the house. She was very critical, driven, and controlling. This creates a hurt and inadequate sense of self, and a deep resentment against women that will flow into his current relationship. Sometimes, this resentment actually shows up as him being a pleaser, feeling unable to assert boundaries with her.
