Motherkind
Zoe Blaskey
Motherkind is the podcast for women who know that motherhood changes everything — and want to grow forward, not “bounce back”. Hosted by Zoe Blaskey, Motherkind explores the profound personal, emotional and professional transformation that happens when you become a mother. This is a space for women navigating the wild, identity-shifting years of motherhood who want to reclaim confidence, redefine ambition, and build a life that works for who they are now. Each week, Zoe sits down with world-leading experts, thought leaders, psychologists, authors and well-known figures to unpack the real experiences of modern motherhood — from matrescence and identity loss to confidence, boundaries, work, relationships and self-worth. Expect honest conversations, evidence-based insight and practical tools that help you move through this season with clarity and strength. Motherkind is not about doing more, fixing yourself, or returning to who you were before children. It’s about becoming who you are now — with intention, compassion and growth. If you’re a mother who wants to feel more like herself again — confident, grounded and excited about what’s next — this is your place. Motherkind: for the woman behind the mother.

MOMENT | A new way to free yourself from unnecessary guilt
27 мар. 2023 г.6 minThis Moment is with Dr. Becky Kennedy. She is a clinical psychologist, mom of three, and founder of the incredibly popular Good Inside. When she first started out, she practiced a popular behavior-first, reward-and-punishment model of parent coaching. But after a while, something struck her: those methods felt awful — for kids and parents. So she got to work, taking everything she knew about attachment, mindfulness, emotion regulation, and internal family systems theory, and translated those ideas into a new method for working with parents.

MOMENT | The hidden importance of emotional safety in relationships with Matthew Fray
20 февр. 2023 г.5 minThis Moment is with Matthew Fray. After Matt’s wife came to him and asked for a divorce, he began a journey of self-reflection to understand what went wrong. He wrote a now-viral article called My wife divorced me, because I left dishes by the sink, and then a best-selling book called This is how your marriage ends. What he learned is incredible. And I think pretty life-changing stuff. He saw that what happens in most relationships, particularly in relationships of good people who really do love each other, is that we engage in a series of small habits and dynamics that over time, erode safety and trust.

Motherhood transformed me into who I was meant to be all along | Megan Rose Lane

I hope this episode leaves you feeling a little bit more courageous, even if just by 1% more, and a little bit braver no matter what that might mean to you.

Cat Sims (Not So Smug Now) on sobriety in motherhood
5 янв. 2023 г.44 minCat Sims, author of the best-selling book The First Time You Smiled (or was it just wind?) and who you might know from the parenting blog she founded Not So Smug Now and podcast of the same name joins me on this week’s episode. How do you feel about your relationship with alcohol? That is a big question in our society. It is everywhere and so ingrained in how we live. Drinking has been normalised, especially in Motherhood. Cat is a year sober now, which I’m curious about as I am 10 years sober. We both have a shared love of the 12-steps which is a recovery process used in Alcoholics Anonymous and also Al-Anon which is the 12-step group I have been in for over 15 years now. We chat about her journey to sobriety. How she went from denying there was a problem to proudly calling herself an alcoholic without shame. She shares the moment she knew she had to get help and how it felt being newly sober when the world around her was still drinking. I hope however you feel about your drinking you’ll take something from this very beautiful and honest conversation. My sponsor this week is Athletic Greens.
