Nobody tells you that becoming a mother often begins with grieving the woman you used to be.
In this powerful episode of The Filosophy Podcast, I share my personal experience with the emotional layers of postnatal depression — or what I now call a motherhood identity crisis. We explore the grief of losing your old self, how sleep deprivation and nervous system overload impact your mental health, and why self-compassion is the foundation of healing.
If you're navigating this transition or supporting someone who is, I hope this honest reflection reminds you that you're not alone — and that grief, identity shifts, and deep love can all exist at once.
Take what you need, leave what you don’t, and let what resonates land in your body of wisdom.
