Bøger af Miriam Aguilar

In the lives of women who have felt the desire to become mothers and have not succeeded, for whatever reason, there is a turning point when they are faced with what is perhaps the most dreaded of questions, "What's next?" Míriam Aguilar shares her profound and personal journey through the painful path of non-motherhood. She had promised herself that one day she would speak openly about her struggle to become a mother, and now she unfolds her story, not as the mother she hoped to be, but as the woman who has found strength and peace in the acceptance of a childless life. With a direct and frank narrative, the author addresses the taboos and social judgments, the pressure of gender mandates, beliefs and expectations that women suffer when motherhood does not materialize. From vulnerability to empowerment, from mourning to acceptance, she invites us to free ourselves from shame and stigma, and to embrace a full and satisfying existence. A courageous book that makes visible a topic surrounded by discomfort, silence and prejudice, and gives us valuable keys for a more empathetic and respectful professional and social accompaniment. A call for women to honor their processes, rewrite their stories and redefine the meaning of their lives outside the traditional paradigm of motherhood.
