Inhaltsangabe

There's a quiet cost to motherhood that rarely gets named: the slow erosion of a woman’s connection to herself.

If we care about raising emotionally intelligent, resilient children, the work begins with the mother, as a child’s emotional development is shaped by the emotional awareness of the woman raising them.

In I'm Fine, certified coach and mother of three Leonora Found explores the hidden identity work of motherhood—the emotional labour, self-doubt, perfectionism, and quiet disconnection that can accumulate over the years, shaping not only how she feels within but also how she engages with the people she loves. In doing so, she reveals what changes when a mother begins to understand herself rather than turning that understanding into criticism.

This is not a stage-specific guide. It's a book for mothers who want to feel steadier in hard moments, less reactive under pressure, and more connected to themselves and their families—whether they're just beginning, in the thick of it, or reflecting on the past.

Through honest stories and practical tools, Found shows how to:

• Build emotional language that strengthens connection
• Model repair instead of perfection
• Reduce self-criticism and reactivity
• Break inherited emotional patterns without blame
• Stay steady in the face of big emotions
• Create a home where emotions can flow instead of being stored.

Whether you're knee-deep in nappies, navigating slammed doors, or waving your grown child into their own life, this book offers tools for now, insight for the past, and confidence for what comes next.

Because... when a mother understands her own inner world, she does more than raise children. She shapes the emotional foundations of the people who will one day shape the world.
