Lost Yourself in Motherhood? Start Here


Listen Later

You can love your kids deeply… and still feel like you’ve lost yourself.

HannaH Findlay is a Mum who has inspired many others with the beauty she has found in pulling herself through some of the toughest parts of becoming a parent. We talk about what happens to your identity in motherhood.

The version where your body changes.
Your mental health takes a hit.
Your interests disappear.
And one day you realise… you don’t actually know what you like anymore.

We talk about:

  • why so many women feel lost after having kids
  • the mental load and “holding your breath all day” feeling
  • how anxiety and overwhelm shrink your capacity to even know what you enjoy
  • the pressure to live entirely for your children (and why that doesn’t work)
  • what it actually takes to start finding yourself again

This isn’t about reinventing your life overnight.

It’s about starting small.
Planting something (literally, for her!)
Trying something.
Letting it be messy and unfinished.

Because no one is coming to save you.
But you can build your way back to yourself.

If you’ve ever thought,
“I don’t know who I am anymore”
this episode will meet you there.

And gently show you a way forward.

HannaH and her husband Brent have a fantastic business called Mortgage Mates - mortgage advisors who feel like friends. If you need some great people on your side, check them out at mortgagemates.co.nz
