In my early postpartum days, I remember Googling things like "motherhood identity crisis" because I felt so lost. I thought I was prepared for motherhood, but I was not. Turns out, I should have been Googling the term "matrescence," but I'd never heard of it. Today, I'm joined by integrative therapist Amy Borskey Duffer to talk about this powerful concept, which helps mothers create meaning and peace amidst huge life changes.

We discuss:

  • What is matrescence? The developmental journey of becoming a mother that affects us physically, emotionally, spiritually
  • Both Amy and Holly's challenging experiences in early motherhood
  • Acceptable cultural norms in motherhood vs. the raw reality of what actually goes on behind the scenes
  • Why we should question common societal narratives about the motherhood journey
  • Career vs. motherhood: can there really be a balance?
  • The importance of forming secure attachment in the first 3 years of a child's life
  • Understanding how personal and generational trauma can affect our mothering
  • The top challenges new mothers face (and ways to address them)
  • The support Amy offers through her private practice and program, The Mother Well

Many people feel like their pain isn't justifiable. They're ashamed of their struggles, because they feel like they had "a pretty decent childhood." This creates the question, "If nothing terrible happened to me, why do I feel so bad?" In this myth-busting episode, I'll answer that question, and offer a new perspective on childhood trauma and what really causes pain. Here's what's covered:

  • The dark side of comparative suffering (why it's dangerous to compare your pain to someone else's)
  • What really creates pain and struggle (hint: it's not what happens to you)
  • Your life rulebook: what it is and how you create it
  • Common "insignificant" events from childhood that leave big emotional scars
  • Why curiosity is key in the healing process
  • Creating new beliefs on purpose

Happy New Year! It's a ripe time for change and goal setting, so I wanted to discuss one of the biggest goal-setting pitfalls out there: changing at the level of ACTION, without changing at the level of identity. Here's what's covered:

  • Why action alone won't create the change you want to see
  • What self-helpy words like "being" and "awareness" really mean, and how to understand and apply them
  • Red flags to notice in your self-talk, and how to turn them around
  • Practical, real-life examples of bringing habit change to the identity level
  • The most important question to ask yourself as you embrace change for good

I'm back at the mic after a break! Truth be told, I've been in a funk. I've appreciated other people being honest about this lately, so I'm being honest about it, too — in hopes that you might feel less alone. Here's what I'm chatting about:

  • 3 more tips that have helped me maintain a baseline of sanity
