Key Quotes
03:18 A lot of us end up feeling lost in motherhood and that we’ve lost ourselves and we see this as a bad thing, I really like to reframe that and allow us to see this as part of the journey, it’s part of the matrescence journey, it’s part of the becoming a mother.
03:41 To find ourselves, first, we need to lose ourselves.
04:27 By acknowledging the transformative journey of matrescence, we open the door to greater understanding and compassion for the struggles many mothers face. It won't erase those feelings of loss, loneliness, or anxiety, but it can provide a path forward with less pain and more support.
14:59 The demands of motherhood can make it challenging to maintain all of the social connections we once had, but it also creates an opportunity to intentionally prioritize the relationships that truly matter and align with our values.
15:16 The journey into motherhood often brings about changes and shifts in our friendships. While some connections may grow stronger, others may naturally evolve or fade away as priorities shift and new responsibilities emerge.
19:26 If something is not enjoyable, it may not be worth trading precious time away from our children for the sake of money. As parents, our time is a valuable commodity that should be spent intentionally on things that bring joy and fulfillment to our lives.
20:42 Mothering my husband is no longer necessary, as we have evolved into a parenting team focused on our children's well-being. Together, we tackle the challenges of raising our family and work towards shared goals.
