Mothers it's time to stay in your lane. struck a cord, so many of you wrote to share how deeply it resonated.

This month, we’re shifting gears to the adult child’s perspective.
Not every mother–adult child relationship is a crash course in boundaries, and yet many are.

Sometimes it's Good
Some mothers manage a graceful merge into their new role, offering love and guidance when asked, trusting their child’s independence, enjoying the ride side-by-side.
If you’re lucky enough to have a mother who supports without controlling, you already know how freeing it feels.

If the road with your mother feels bumpy, it isn’t because you missed a turn. It’s often because she never learned how to navigate this adult stretch of the drive.

When She Drives Into Your Lane
Some mothers helicopter, always ready to advise, correct, or “help.” Others pull back, keeping their distance but tossing remarks that cut like tiny stones on the windshield.

Maybe:
*She questions every decision and offers advice you didn’t ask for then acts hurt when you don’t follow it.
*She calls only to complain.... or barely calls at all.
*Her "help" comes wrapped in criticism that leaves you doubting yourself.

Whatever form it takes, it stings. It can feel as if you’re steering your own life forward while she keeps swerving into your lane or drifting so far away you feel stranded on an empty road.
 

Why It Hurts
From birth, children look to their mothers for love, safety, and recognition. Even as adults, married, running businesses, raising families, part of us still longs for that steady presence.
When a mother hovers or does the opposite and withdraws, tension builds inside. On the surface, you smile and carry on. Inside, your body hits the brakes:

*Tight shoulders or back pain
*Restless sleep
*A heavy knot of guilt, resentment or sadness that never quite goes away
 

Whose the Parent?
Sometimes you even find yourself having to be the parent and grabbing the wheel for her, making excuses to keep the peace:
“She had a hard childhood.”
“She didn’t have the opportunities I have.”
These explanations might soften the edges, but they don’t release the stress your body is carrying.

You CAN Steady Your Driving
Here’s the truth: you can’t control how your mother drives.
But you can change how her words and actions land in your body.
This is where energy kinesiology makes a profound difference. Using muscle testing, we uncover where your body is holding the stress of old interactions and release the patterns that keep you stuck.

The Results?
*Critical words lose their sting.
*Distance no longer feels like rejection.
*The ache of not being seen softens into calm self-acceptance.

Instead of being hooked or thrown off course, you stay centered with steady hands firmly on your own wheel, cruising confidently in your lane.

What Clients Experience

Ally
Ally’s business was ready to soar, but something kept stalling her success. No matter how much praise she received for her work, she couldn’t take it in. Muscle testing revealed the real block: a lifelong need for her mother’s approval.
After our work together she shared, “For the first time ever, Mom thanked me for listening, what a relief to realize I didn’t need her praise anymore and that’s when she finally gave it!”

Sophie
For years Sophie felt angry and distant from her mother, certain she’d never be good enough.
After our session she surprised herself with an open, uplifting conversation with her mother. “It felt like an adult to adult talk for the first time” she said. “And yet it was extra special because it was with my mother. I finally feel free to be me without waiting for her to change.”

Judith
Judith used to crumble at her mother’s cutting remarks. After her session the same words barely registered. “I felt calm, steady and firmly in my own power” she said. “I even found myself feeling a little sorry for her.”

As adults, we can choose which character traits we want to nurture. In 2024, I've chosen listening (or more specifically, being an attentive listener).
