In this episode, Beth revisits her journey of weaning her eldest daughter, Poppy - something that many mums go through, but few talk about. 

Weaning isn’t just about dropping feeds. It can be a whole-body, whole-heart experience filled with hormonal shifts, emotional ups and downs, and often, a surprising sense of loss. Whether you’re thinking about weaning, in the thick of it, or supporting someone who is, this episode is here to offer insight and solidarity.

• Beth’s emotional and physical experience saying goodbye to breastfeeding

• Practical tips for easing the transition

• How to honour the identity shifts that come with this part of motherhood

• The glimmers: the spaciousness that weaning has allowed, Beth feeling a new sense of self and a reconnection to her body. 

This is one of our most-loved episodes for a reason. We hope it meets you with kindness, comfort and reminds you you’re not alone in this season.
