Finding Your Spark: Creative Outlets for Busy Moms Artwork

The Sparkle Project

(Formerly Worthy Mother Podcast)

The Sparkle Project is a feminist podcast for moms who are done carrying the weight of motherhood alone and are ready to connect with who they truly are - their sparkle, if you will.

So many of us feel overwhelmed not because we’re failing, but because we’re mothering inside a patriarchal system that expects us to give endlessly, stay quiet, and lose ourselves in the process. This space challenges those outdated expectations and embraces a more empowered, more supported, more self-honoring version of motherhood.

Hosted by Emily Rose MacDonald, a divorced mom of two on her own journey to shine a little brighter, each episode explores the realities of modern motherhood through a feminist lens that values equity, autonomy, mental health, and the humanity of moms.

You’ll hear conversations about identity, mental health, self-care, healing, and the many ways we can reclaim ourselves in a world that often overlooks the needs of mothers.

If you’re a mom who believes we deserve more than survival, and that our culture has to evolve for moms to truly thrive, you’re in the right place.

Motherhood often leaves little time for self-expression, but creativity is more than just an enjoyable pastime - it’s a proven way to boost well-being. In this episode, I’m diving into the incredible power of creative outlets and how they can help moms reconnect with themselves. Plus, I’ll explain how making time for creativity benefits not just you, but your whole family.

From journaling to dancing to crafting, there’s something for every mom to explore. Drawing from my own experiences and research, I share practical ways to incorporate creativity into your busy life - even if it means getting the kids involved!
