  • The Mythical Journey of Mothers: Making Meaning on the Spiritual Path
    Nov 14 2025

    In this final episode of the season, we explore motherhood as a profound spiritual and mythic journey - one that cracks us open, reshapes our identity, and calls us into deeper presence - not unlike the Hero’s Journey and ancient rites of passage.

    From the unraveling of identity to the depths of our shadows and the emergence of a wiser, more embodied self, motherhood invites us into profound transformation.

    Beneath the deep love and endless to-do's, motherhood is really a path of awakening: inviting surrender, growth, self-inquiry, and healing. We speak to the sacred thresholds mothers cross - from conception and pregnancy, through birth, postpartum, and beyond - and how these journeys mirror ancient rites of passage.

    Through the lens of myth and story, we reflect on the initiations mothers undergo and how these thresholds, though often painful and challenging, can become portals of meaning, power, and deeply embodied wisdom.

    This episode is a reminder that your struggles are not burdens meant to leave you bitter: they are part of a larger story of becoming. If you’ve ever longed to see motherhood as a spiritual path with purpose and power, this conversation is for you.

  • Overstimulated, Touched Out, On Edge: Tools for the Breaking Point and Beyond

    In this episode of The Inner Work of Motherhood, we explore what happens when a mother’s nervous system becomes overloaded: the overstimulation, anger, irritability, and wanting to disappear.

  • Reclaim the Magic of Motherhood with Presence and Mindfulness
    Sep 20 2025

    Motherhood holds some of the brightest, most magical moments of our lives - ecstatic joy, oceanic love, and the kind of wonder that makes time stand still. But in the busyness of our day to day lives, it’s all too easy to lose sight of these moments. Between the endless tasks of feeding, cleaning, and planning, joy can feel like a distant memory rather than a daily reality.

    In this episode, we explore how to reconnect with the joy, presence, and magic of motherhood, even in the hardest seasons. You’ll learn simple, practical ways to slow down, shift your nervous system out of overdrive, and bring more mindfulness into your daily life. From using your breath and attention to regulate stress, to savoring fleeting moments with your child, these practices can help you feel more alive, more fulfilled, and more deeply connected to yourself and your family.

    We’ll also explore:
    ✨ The barriers that keep mothers from enjoying parenthood
    ✨ How rushing puts us in stress mode and blocks joy
    ✨ Presence as the foundation of happiness and fulfillment
    ✨ Somatic and mindfulness tools for finding magic in ordinary moments

    If you’ve ever felt like the joy of motherhood was a false promise or wondered how to be more present with your children, this episode will give you both the encouragement and grounded practices to shift from stress into awe.

  • Overwhelm in Motherhood Part 2: How to Break Free from the Freeze Response
    Sep 13 2025

    In Part 2 of Overwhelm In Motherhood, we explore the freeze response - the nervous system state where overwhelm lives - and that can leave mothers feeling shut down, numb, or paralyzed. While freeze can feel like a place of shame or failure, it’s also a clear message from our body - we just have to learn to listen to what she’s saying.

    This episode dives into the nervous system and looks at what’s really happening beneath the surface when we’re in overwhelm, how the freeze response shows up in motherhood, and why it can be so hard to thaw ourselves out. We’ll explore gentle ways to create safety, mobilize our system, and begin to stoke our inner fire - so we can return to connection, personal power, and vitality.

  • Overwhelm in Motherhood Part 1: The Invisible Weight We Carry
    Sep 6 2025

    In this episode, we explore the hidden factors that contribute to overwhelm: chronic fatigue and sleep deprivation, the mental load of remembering and managing countless details, the role that estrogen plays, sensitivity to the world around us, and the unique challenges of high needs children.

    Join me next week for Part 2 where we'll dive into the nervous system, how the freeze response shows up in motherhood, and the practical steps we can take to prevent and alleviate overwhelm.

Whether you feel creatively blocked, disconnected from your sense of self, or you’re simply longing to feel inspired again, this conversation is here to remind you that creativity is not separate from mothering - it is a vital part of it.

You’ll hear about the subtle ways creativity calls to us, the grief of creative loss, and how to begin tending your inner flame - no matter how small it may currently feel.

  • Why Modern Motherhood Feels So Hard: Raising Children Without A Village and the Need for Cultural Midwifery
    Aug 23 2025

    Why does motherhood so often feel overwhelming, lonely, and heavier than we ever imagined? In this opening episode of The Inner Work of Motherhood, we explore the roots of the modern maternal struggle: the loss of the village, the unrealistic expectations of the “Good Mother,” and the cultural pressures that leave women doing the work of many, often in isolation.

    We’ll explore the need for cultural midwifery - a collective reimagining of how we hold mothers as they cross thresholds, navigate daily challenges, and shape the next generation. This conversation is both a truth-telling about why mothers are struggling and an invitation to dream of a culture that holds them with the reverence, support, and belonging they deserve.

    Whether you’re a new mom navigating postpartum, a seasoned mother longing for deeper support, or someone passionate about creating community around parenthood, this episode will help you understand why modern motherhood feels so hard and what needs to change.
