Hurt to Healing

Zoe Blaskey on The Identity Shift of Motherhood and How to Be Kinder to Yourself


Listen Later

In this episode of Hurt to Healing, I’m joined by Zoe Blaskey — founder of the Motherkind platform, host of the award-winning podcast, and author of Motherkind. Zoe shares her personal journey into motherhood, and how the challenges she faced inspired her to question societal expectations and support others navigating similar paths.

We talk about “matrescence” — the identity shift that happens when a woman becomes a mother — and the emotional, hormonal and relational changes that come with it. Zoe opens up about burnout, the inner critic, and why self-kindness is so essential in parenthood. Whether you're a mother or not, this is a conversation about compassion, identity, and healing that resonates far beyond motherhood.
