Welcome Mama
The Psychological Changes of Matrescence
When we become mothers, we begin the transformation that is matrescence. One of the most challenging areas of change we may experience is psychological change. From the change in the way we see ourselves, our lives, and how others see us, to changing values, priorities, and perspectives - these changes can be disorienting or empowering!
Join us as we explore what this can look like and explore the spectrum of change that we can fall on.
