What does it mean “to mother"? How do we mother ourselves? In this very special podcast episode, I talk to Iyanla Vanzant, Oprah’s life coach and best-selling author dedicated to the growth and evolution of human consciousness. Iyanla’s name means “great mother,” and in this conversation, we talk about ways that we can access the deeper spiritual nature of what it means to be a mother.

3 Takeaways:

1. To mother is to nourish, nurture, teach, and beautify 2. Before we can learn to mother ourselves, we must get to “I matter” 3. Accept what comes to you in the day, at night, you can give it back with forgiveness
