This episode is not just for mothers. It’s for any woman who has ever felt the pull to grow up — psychologically, spiritually, mythically — and wasn’t given a roadmap. Whether you have children or not, if you carry unresolved pain around your own mother, feel caught between the girl you were and the woman you’re becoming, or have struggled to hold both freedom and responsibility at once, this conversation is for you. We’re told that motherhood is a beginning. But for many, it begins with a loss. One that nobody’s talks about. In this episode, we explore the invisible death that occurs when a woman is called to mother: the loss of her former self, the end of personal centrality, and the psychological splitting that happens when she isn’t given a rite of passage to mark the transition.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why motherhood is a psychic rupture, not just a life event
• What happens when the maiden archetype isn’t released with intention
• How the “toxic mother” narrative often masks ungrieved ancestral trauma
• What re-mothering actually looks like (whether or not you have children)
• How to begin a self-led rite of passage from maiden to mother
• Why certain animals, people, or patterns leave when you’re ready to grow
• How to hold yourself through grief, transformation, and inner maturity
• What it means to become a lineage-holder (and why the world needs you to)

You’ll also be guided through a ritual closing incantation designed to begin the transformation process within you. If you’re ready to stop performing growth and start embodying it, this one’s for you.
