If you knew about matrescence – the developmental transformation a woman goes through when she becomes a mother – before you became a mum, would it have changed your motherhood experience?

Imagine you knew, before you had your baby: what is matrescence, how does matrescence change you, and how might matrescence manifest for you.
Moreover, what if someone encouraged you to prepare yourself for matrescence by delving into yourself, and your life to this point, and writing a plan for your matrescence journey?

In this episode of MAMA, UNLEASHED! I share with you knowledge, information and an evidence-based strategy that will help you thrive in matrescence, especially if you are expecting a baby.

What is self-care?

Chocolate cake, spa days and alcohol are NOT self-care.

In this episode of MAMA, UNLEASHED! I speak with the amazing and admirable mum of three Wendy Euler. Wendy is the creator of the highly successful women’s empowerment movement Goodbye Crop Top and the podcast Cropped – a midlife minute (learn more about these in the MENTIONS section below).

I believe that as women there is so much we can learn from women who have gone before us. And Wendy delivers learnings in spades.

This conversation goes there!
It is deep, nourishing, informative and focussed on empowering women towards great mental health and happiness. See why we dislike popular “self-care” and how focussing on our courage, confidence, consciousness, curiosity, conversations, and true relationships are far more important.

When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know.
But if you listen, you may learn something new.
