On this episode of The Redeeming Stories Podcast, I’m joined by therapist and coach Heidi McBain, who walks with women through the emotional seasons of motherhood — pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause.

We talk about the unseen parts of motherhood: identity shifts, exhaustion, the invisible load women carry, and the way joy and overwhelm can exist side by side — especially during the holidays. Heidi shares her own story, the roots of her calling, and the healing threads she sees woven across every stage of a woman’s life.

Together, we explore:

• The emotional realities of pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause

• Carrying both gratitude and depletion at the same time

• Why mothers often feel unseen — and how that can change

• Redefining strength, support, and self-compassion

• Hope that grows quietly through each transition

This conversation is for the mother who is tired, tender, stretched thin, or unsure where she fits inside her own story right now. Your presence is enough. Your becoming is holy. And your story still holds beauty.

Tune in. Rest here awhile.
