In this episode with Roxanne Horta-  therapist, wellness coach and mama- we dive into the real physical, emotional, and hormonal changes of motherhood through a compassionate, holistic lens. We move beyond “bounce back” pressure and talk about postpartum mental health, body image, nourishment, gentle healing, and self-compassion. This convo centers grounded, realistic wellness and reminds you that postpartum healing is not linear and you don’t have to do it alone.

In this episode, I’m sharing these 3 must-know concepts for postpartum and motherhood that can completely shift how you experience this season- not from pressure or perfection, but from compassion, cultura, and grounded care.

We talk about:

✨ Matrescence: the emotional, mental, and identity shift of becoming a mother (and why feeling both love and overwhelm is real and valid) (Referenced video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOsX_HnJtHU&t=1s )

✨ Cuarentena: the traditional practice emphasizing the importance of rest, recovery, and building your village in postpartum

✨ Grounding: coming back to yourself when everything feels like too much Motherhood isn’t about “bouncing back.”It’s about becoming.

Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or navigating early madrehood, this is your reminder: you don’t have to do this alone, and you were never meant to.
