The relationship we have with our madres is one of, if not THE most important, relationship we have in our lives. Yes, even if it isn’t a good one or don’t have an active relationship with them at all.
Whether they’re in our lives or not, the relationship we have with our mamás shapes us.
How we relate to others, how we receive love and support, how we nurture ourselves, and how much we feel like we belong, are all greatly affected by our relationship to our mamis.
So if we’re experiencing issues with connection in our closest relationships, the first area we should seek to heal is our Madre Wound.
Our Healing the Madre Wound Introductory Workshop supports daughters of Latinx/Chicanx ancestry who are looking to identify the nature of their Madre Wound, and begin to heal it so that they can establish more deeply nourishing relationships with themselves, their children, or the children in their lives.
Hola, queridos! Soy Leslie Priscilla. I’m a first-generation non-black Chicana mother to three bicultural children. I’m a descendant of Indigenous Tarahumara Rarámuri and Spanish lineages, and I’ve resided on occupied Tongva and Acjachemen land, a.k.a Orange County, CA, all my life.
I’ve been working with children, caregivers, and familias for over 14 years, both as a teacher and through work with various mental health organizations throughout Orange County. But now I share my medicine with you all through Latinx Parenting, the bilingual organization I founded.
Latinx Parenting is rooted in children’s rights, social & racial justice, and antiracism, and offers family education and support that is trauma-informed, healing-centered, amplifying of our strengths, advocacy, and culturally sustaining of and for the Latinx community and its allies.
Through curated and passionate content, workshops, and courses, Latinx Parenting supports parents, caregivers, and former Latinx children to heal their lineages, raise thriving future ancestors, and create more connection with themselves, their children, and their cultura. My belief is that through this work we can leave a legacy of thriving for our gente. I’m so happy that you’re with us on this journey!
If you’re a Latinx/Chicanx woman who has wounding in your relationship with your mother and this event is speaking to you, then this is for you. This workshop will introduce you to the concept of the madre wound and support you to set the foundation for healing it.
This will be a LIVE workshop on Saturday, May 11, 2024 from 11 am to 12:30 pm PST. After the live workshop, the recording will be made available for those who register. Spanish translation will be available, as well.
We’ve opened up a community space for every workshop and course offering we have for no additional fee. People learn in community and we hope this benefit cultivates the learning experience we aim to nurture as we each pursue the mission of #TheCycleStopsConmigo
We’re glad to hear this workshop resonated with you! This workshop is specifically for people who women as Latinx Chicanx.
