What is your relationship to anger like? Have you experienced more anger since becoming a mother?

If you have, you aren't alone. There is a unique flavor of anger I call "mother rage" that pops up while tending to little ones. It has important insights for us - if we are willing to listen.

Anger can be scary, but it is also a valuable teacher, pointing out our deepest values and tenderest places. We get angry about issues that matter to us, areas that need to change. For that reason, anger is one of my favorite emotions - and a potent force for transformation.

In this solo episode, I share what I'm angry about currently, as well as how I work with that anger in myself and in my clients.

I hope this episode helps you breathe a sigh of relief next time you feel angry - and get curious enough to listen to anger's wisdom.

What was becoming a mother like for our mothers? For our grandmothers?

How can the wisdom from women who have come before guide us newer mamas in this journey? What can we learn from our mothers, grandmothers, wise women?

In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with my own mom to unravel and discover my female lineage, learning about my mama's motherhood journey as well as my grandmother's.

My mother — a mama to 3 children — shares her experience of becoming a mama in her 20s, divorcing in her 30s, and then becoming a mama again in her 40s. She reflects on the delicate balance of maintaining a separate sense of self, of womanhood, while being a devoted mother.

We also explored what "feminine power" means in the context of motherhood, and women's unique ability to subtly influence family dynamics - without losing ourselves in the process.

I left this chat feeling more connected to my mom and to the long line of mothers before us, as well as inspired by the foundational wisdom from generations before me. If you've ever wondered how to keep your own dreams alive and your partnership strong while raising little ones, this conversation is for you.

In this captivating, intimate episode of the Eros Mama podcast, I welcome Alexandra Roxo, best-selling author of "Fuck Like a Goddess" and mother to a 10-month-old girl.

Alexandra shares her transformative journey to motherhood, discussing the challenges of finding the right partner and balancing her career with her desire for a child.

Alexandra opens up about her transition from a successful career in film and TV to a spiritual and healing path, and how this shift ultimately led her to motherhood. She candidly discusses the societal pressures she faced, her experiences with miscarriage, and the deep personal work she and her partner undertook to create a strong foundation for their family.

She challenges cultural narratives about motherhood and encourages women to embrace their erotic selves while navigating the demands of parenting.

This episode offers valuable insights for anyone interested in conscious conception, maintaining sensuality during pregnancy and postpartum, and creating a thriving partnership while raising a family. Alexandra's story is a testament to the power of trust, embodiment, and staying connected to one's desires throughout the journey of motherhood.

Join Megan and Alexandra for this empowering conversation that redefines what it means to be a sensual, vibrant mother in today's world.

Have you ever trusted your intuition, even amidst the noise of other people's opinions? Such a powerful and needed skill of a mama.

In this episode, I share about taking my daughter out of school after noticing her upset when being dropped off. I talk about navigating conflicting voices in my head - am I coddling her? Aren't I supposed to "send my kids to school" - vs. ultimately trusting the quiet whispers of my body telling me this wasn't right.

I've also been exploring the concept of "unschooling" which focuses on child-led learning without an adult-imposed curriculum. This concept resonates deeply with me and I share my favorite resources on it below.

Ultimately this episode is about trusting our intuition as mother's even when it goes against societal norms or advice from others. I invite you to deeply listen to yourself as you make choices about your children.

A great listen for any mama considering pre-school, homeschool, or unschooling her children.
