In this episode of Evening Tea, we open a gentle, honest conversation about the emotional undercurrents of pregnancy, postpartum, and womanhood, and one of the many ways women seek support when big feelings stay put.

Together with Fruma Weiss, we explore Emotion Code and Body Code as practices that some mothers turn to when the physical and emotional overlap in ways that are hard to name but impossible to ignore. This isn’t about offering a fix or defining a belief system. It’s about widening the landscape of what support can look like, especially in seasons where the traditional tools don’t touch what’s happening underneath.

We talk about what it means to feel “off,” why emotions sometimes linger, how the body holds what the mind can’t process, and why curiosity, not certainty, is often the doorway to relief.

If you’ve ever wondered why certain feelings won’t move, or if you’ve sensed that something deeper is asking for your attention, this conversation is an invitation to listen in and feel less alone.
