Spaces Between

Episode 40: Birth, Tears, and Motherhood


Listen Later

In this episode back, after an almost 9 month hiatus from podcasting, I explore my experience birthing a human. The big tears of overwhelm and joy shed in the postpartum period, as well as my feelings around the often bullshit narratives around motherhood. In this episode I explore:
  • The humility and surrender that I experienced both with birth and new motherhood
  • Embracing the total unknown and liminal spaces between
  • Women stepping fully into their power and not overriding their deep intuitive knowing
  • The deep feminine wounding that still continues to play out amongst mothers (Insert judgment and shaming)
  • Gifting yourself compassion and forgiveness as a new mom
  • The death of self and your old identity and how it's not linear
  • My big feelings on privilege and resources in this country for new parents
  • The desperate need for more postpartum care for families
  • The overwhelming amount of opinions when you become pregnant and then have the child
  • The impact of having a baby on your relationship
  • A deep and wild connection to the life cycle
