FAITH NEWS SERVICE – Gilbert, AZ — [23 February, 2026] – What happens when the one person who was supposed to nurture you caused your deepest wounds? In her new book, UnMothered No More: A Healing Guide for the Next Generations (Redemption Press, 2025), author, speaker, and certified trauma-informed coach Phylis Mantelli offers women a path toward freedom from toxic mother wounds and generational dysfunction.
Drawing from her own story of growing up with a toxic mother, Mantelli combines biblical wisdom, coaching practices, and practical tools to guide women through the steps of healing. With journaling prompts, prayer, and honest encouragement, UnMothered No More equips readers to:
- Set healthy boundaries without guilt
- Recognize and release destructive family patterns
- Find safe, nurturing “mama mentors”
- Replace shame with God’s love and truth
- Create a new legacy of peace for future generations
Mantelli, author of the memoir UnMothered and host of The UnMothered Podcast, brings more than a decade of experience as a certified speaker and trauma-informed coach. She has walked this journey herself and now helps women break cycles of dysfunction with courage and faith.
“Breaking patterns is not betrayal—it’s leadership,” says Mantelli. “This work isn’t just about your healing—it’s about what you pass on to the generations that follow.”
UnMothered No More is available through Redemption Press, Amazon, and other major retailers.
