The role of being a Mother offers us the potential for incredible expansion, growth, and power, while also being one of if not THE most challenging, undervalued, and taken for granted roles in the world. Motherhood Studies Sociologist, researcher, and single Mother, Dr Sophie Brock hosts The Good Enough Mother (TGEM) podcast with an aim to change how Motherhood is culturally defined and individually experienced. TGEM draws its name from a theorist and pediatrician Winnicott, who highlighted the ways 'good enough' parenting is actually what is best for our children not perfectionism.

Being a mom is hard—everybody knows that. But usually we only hear about sleepless nights and diaper changes, not the profound identity shift that accompanies becoming a mother. Motherhood is a psychological big bang. And yet it's rare to find emotionally honest conversations about it. On Gimlet Media's Motherhood Sessions, Dr. Alexandra Sacks, a renowned reproductive psychiatrist, sits down with mothers and lets us listen in on conversations that are hard to have outside of a therapist's office. Each episode features a woman struggling with some problem or question—from career uncertainty to sex to ambivalence about even being a mother—and she and Dr. Sacks work it through together. more

Becoming a mother leaves no woman as it found her, it unravels and rebuilds her, it cracks her open, takes her to her edges, it's both beautiful and brutal often at the same time. This transformation has a name; matrescence. The monumental shift a woman experiences through becoming and being a mother. Like adolescence, matrescence is a time of radical transformation; physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. However unlike adolescence, matrescence remains largely unacknowledged in mainstream culture. And it's time for that to change. Welcome to Seasons of Matrescence - The Podcast, where we explore the changing seasons of becoming, and being a mother. I'm your guide, Nikki McCahon, mother, matrescence educator and womens life cycle guide. Let's explore the transformative potential of matrescence and change the conversation about motherhood, together. © Copyright Dear Mama Project™ 2020 - See podcast terms and conditions on website more

When you become a mother, the identity shift is colossal, but so is the… silence. There's talk of the lack of sleep, the challenges of breastfeeding, how tired you'll be. But no one warns you about the hormonal, mental and physical impacts of motherhood. How you might not recognise yourself. How vulnerable you can feel. The transformation you will undergo. The words are hard to find.  It has a name, Matrescence, and we need to talk about it.  After I gave birth to our first baby, I felt such a mix of emotions in terms of who I was. No one had warned me. Women around me have asked 'when do I go back to myself?' They've expressed a fear of losing themselves after they give birth. They've felt lonely. Underprepared. Even crazy. They're not.  But where's the discussion about this intense transition? The new version of yourself you have to uncover while navigating parenthood for the first time? How do you keep your relationships intact when there isn't even time to do the dishes, or brush your hair, or notice that stain (there is always a stain, now) on your jumper? Let alone go back to a career... How do you exist in this new reality and reconcile the new you with the old?  Join me as I talk about the personal transformation that happens when women become mums—through discussions with those who have lived it, and professionals who can shine a light on the science behind some of these astronomical emotional and mental shifts. It's my hope that the more we talk, the more we'll be able to express and understand this seismic change, and that in hearing each other's stories we'll be able to re-discover and re-center ourselves. Or just feel a little less alone.  Mummafication: a new podcast and safe space for women to discuss all the things we wish we'd been told.Without judgement.With honesty, humility, and a ton of compassion.   Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/mummafication.

We look at the absolute quagmire of a bind that the modern mother finds herself in stuck between having all the options available but none of the support required to actually action any of them well and to top it all off, most of us don't resemble who we were pre kids and don't have space to work out who we now are, so there's no going back or moving forward, we are just getting by doing the most important job of our lives.

Parenthood and maintaining a healthy relationship are ambitious endeavors. Being fully aware, you armed yourself with all the latest books, articles, podcasts, and resources, committed to being present and strong for your family. Yet, despite embracing every piece of advice and strategy in your search for reassurance, there are times you find yourself wondering why the harmony, connection, and closeness you envisioned seem out of reach. If this rings true, let me tell you: it's not you! It's what they didn't tell you. The parenting guidance and strategies we read online lack depth. They hardly ever address the transition into parenthood and the profound impact this has on our identity, partnerships, and ability to show up as the parent we wish to be for our children. But guess what? We're about to turn that around. Hi there, I'm Markella Kaplani. A clinical-counseling psychologist, a parenthood and relationship Coach, a matrescence coach and facilitator, a former special educator, and a parent myself. In my 15+ years in counseling and coaching, I know this to be true: once a parent is truly supported, not only through being given techniques to overcome parenting challenges, but on a personal and relational level, then the entire family can thrive. So, welcome to the Parenthood and Relationship Podcast! Here, we learn to grow individually, normalizing and validating the processes of matrescence and patrescence (i.e. struggling with identity, mom guilt, dad guilt, postpartum rage, work-life balance, etc). We also grow together by unraveling how parenthood affects marriage and what stands in the way of following the actionable parenting strategies that we know are helpful. So, if you're feeling ready, let me hold your hand while we tackle intriguing, yet difficult topics, with compassion and curiosity.
