Building a business while becoming a mother can feel like everything is shifting at once—and no one really explains why.

In this episode, Alexa talks about matrescence—the real, full-body transition into motherhood that affects your mind, your energy, your emotions, and your entire life structure.

This isn’t just about “finding balance” or getting organized. It’s about navigating a version of yourself that is still evolving while your business still needs you to show up.

Alexa shares what this actually looks like day-to-day—from brain fog and fragmented work time to changing ambition and a much lower tolerance for things that don’t make sense anymore.

If you’ve been wondering why work feels harder, slower, or different since becoming a mom—you’re not alone, and you’re not doing it wrong.

You’re in matrescence.
