Nourishing the MotherAuthor: Bridget Wood & Julie Tenner
Mothering can be an inspired journey to our most glittering, authentic, passionate, creative and connected selves. Through the mirror offered to us by our children, we are taken to every hurt, unmet need, and also every joy and excitement weve ever experienced. We want every woman and mother to give themselves and those around them the compassion, love and healing they so readily offer their children, but rarely allow themselves. Journey with us as we discuss the many layers of being a mother today, where we have come from and where we want to go. Learn tools to connect with yourself, offer compassion to those parts wed rather deny and get back in love with yourself, motherhood and who you are as a feminine woman.

NTM 541: Resentment vs. Love: The Energy Behind Your Words
Episode 541
Monday, 1 December, 2025
Resentment is quiet… until it isn’t.And when it leaks through your tone, your silence, or the way you half-turn when he walks in the door, it can change the entire ecosystem of your relationship - even when you don’t mean it to.In this episode, we dive into the real energetic difference between speaking from bitterness and speaking from love. We explore why so many long-term couples get caught in confirmation loops, scorekeeping, and micro-withdrawals… and how the smallest shift in tone, softness, or openness can bring a whole relationship back online. Through a client story that moved from near-separation to reconnection, we unpack how resentment builds, how it melts, and why the quality of your “hello” at the door can set the emotional temperature for your whole evening. This episode is a mix of deep truth and deliciously human moments — the friendship, the coaching, and the reality of women doing life and love in real time. In This Episode, We Discuss:• The subtle ways resentment leaks through tone, posture, and silence — even when you think you’re “being fine.”• The client story: from near-divorce to reconnection through clarity, responsibility, and shifting the energy behind her words.• How testing, scorekeeping, and waiting for him to fail creates the very distance you fear.• The difference between speaking from bitterness (“did you even…?”) and speaking from love (“hey love, could you…?”).• The moment a woman realises “everything you don’t do automatically means I do it” — and why this belief keeps resentment alive.• Over-functioning vs under-functioning: how these nervous system patterns lock couples into power struggles.• Why the daily greeting — that tiny “hello” at the door — shapes the entire emotional temperature of your night.• How to create safety and connection by inviting your partner in instead of silently testing them.• The role of exit strategies and why knowing you can leave often makes you stay with more truth and softness.• The magnetic influence women hold in relationships — not through force, but through the energy of receptivity and clarity.• How bonding with friends over partner-complaints keeps you stuck in resentment loops without even realising it.Want support on this journey?
