Psychotherapists and moms Jessica Tomich Sorci and Rebecca Geshuri see this every day in their practices. With compassion, humor and paradoxical wisdom, Tomich Sorci and Geshuri address difficult and often suppressed emotions such as: fear, anger, guilt, disappointment, ambivalence, and the shame and grief that ubiquitously accompany motherhood. In the first book applying Internal Family Systems to motherhood, they share their revelatory adaptation of IFS to validate these feelings, helping moms to accept and work through them. Introducing the concept of \"parts\" as well as the techniques of \u003ci\u003eunblending \u003c\/i\u003e(separating from reactions and recognizing them as parts) and \u003ci\u003ebefriending \u003c\/i\u003e(bringing warmth and curiosity to individual parts), Tomich Sorci and Geshuri's simple and practical program offers a way for any mom anywhere to identify her pain points, make sense of her distress--and begin to find relief.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessica Tomich Sorci,Rebecca Geshuri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0306837706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780306837708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Balance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/03\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Jessica Tomich Sorci","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47427748102399,"sku":"9780306837708","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_22645177-d834-4dca-9947-862d704ddb1c.jpg?v=1761581337","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/when-good-moms-feel-bad-jessica-tomich-sorci-9780306837708","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
