Healing While Raising Her: When Your Inner Child and Actual Child Are Both Crying is a raw, honest, and affirming look into the life of a Black mother parenting a neurodivergent child while healing her invisible wounds.
Written by Lyre Jones, this deeply personal narrative explores what it means to raise a child with ADHD and ODD as a mother who's also navigating trauma, mental health, and a journey toward self-acceptance.
This book offers more than stories-it's a lifeline. Blending memoir, reflection prompts, mental health research, and parenting wisdom, Healing While Raising Her speaks directly to cycle-breaking moms who are tired, triggered, and still trying.
This book says, " For readers who've felt judged, unseen, or overwhelmed by the parenting systems that were not built for them, you're not broken. You're healing."
Perfect for mothers, caregivers, educators, and therapists seeking insight on childhood behavior, generational trauma, and emotional regulation, especially within the Black community.
