“She’s Hurting Herself… What Do I Do?” Breaking the Silence, Together

Rach Episode 37

This week, things are a little different and more personal.

I’m joined by Sally, a fellow mum who shares her story of discovering her daughter was self-harming. It’s raw, honest, and not about fixing - but about feeling seen.

We talk about the guilt, the silence, and the strength it takes to show up even when you have no idea what to do. Two mums, holding space for a new kind of conversation, one that breaks shame and starts to build a different story.

You might notice my message shifting. That’s because the girls I work with aren’t “too much” -  they’re overwhelmed, sensitive, and carrying more than they can say. So I’m speaking more directly to that, and to you - the mum doing the quiet work of holding it all.

If you’ve ever felt alone with something heavy… this is for you.

She’s not broken.

You’re not failing.

And we’re rewriting the narrative - together.

If anything in this week’s episode resonated for you, please know you’re not alone.

A little heads up, I’ve opened the doors again to my WTF Membership and they’re open till 27th September 2025 at midnight BST. It’s my space for mums just like you, where we go deeper into understanding your daughter, decoding her signals, and giving you the support and tools you need so neither of you feels alone in this. Keep an ear out, because I’d love to welcome you inside.

And... if you're local to me (that's in Cumbria, UK) come and join me (and my daughter) for a monthly mums + daughters meet-up that starts at the end of this month. Free, fun, connection, coffee and cake — and a chance for both you and your girl to meet others who get it.
