The Myth of Motherhood with Vanessa Bennett

In this episode, Dr. Shefali is joined by Vanessa Bennett, a licensed depth psychotherapist, author, and facilitator whose work helps people break free from self-abandonment, heal from codependency, and reconnect with their authentic selves beneath layers of conditioning. A mother and author of The Motherhood Myth and co-host of the Cheaper Than Therapy podcast, Vanessa brings depth psychology, archetypal wisdom, and embodied healing to every conversation. Together, Dr. Shefali and Vanessa explore the myths of motherhood, the journey from codependency to interdependence, and what it means to parent and live from a place of wholeness and truth.
