The Re-Imagining Motherhood Podcast
If becoming a Mother (aka matrescence) is an invitation to expand, then why does it feel so restrictive at times? It's "supposed" to be hard, as is any life transition...but "this" hard? This hard is patriarchal Motherhood hard and we NEED to talk about it.
So much of Motherhood feels like a "me problem" when in reality, it is much more of a "we problem". If you've been wondering why Motherhood feels so hard, let this podcast be the validation you need that there isn't anything wrong with you...burnout, depletion, overwhelm etc. are all potential symptoms of being a Mother within patriarchal Motherhood. It's time to stop pathologizing so much of Motherhood and give Mothers the words they need to describe their experiences.
For if Motherhood is oppressive (Rich), then mothering can be empowering.
Join Chelsea Robinson, licensed clinical social worker and founder of Mama's Modern Village, as she has crucial conversations that bridge together the researchers, scholars, changemakers and thoughtleaders in the Motherhood space with Mothers and those that support them, personally and professionally.
Let these episodes be your weekly dose of hope, inspiration and motivation that you need to keep Re-Imagining Motherhood for yourself (and for Mothers everywhere).
The Re-Imagining Motherhood Podcast
Trailer - This is my WHY
Welcome to the Trailer for the Re-Imagining Motherhood podcast.
The idea of starting a podcast has felt overwhelming for a long while, but this knowledge and these incredible people are too important not to share.
Mothers, and those that support them, need this education, these perspective shifting conversations and hope for the future.
Most importantly, Mothers need words to describe their experiences, as Dr. Aurelié Athan suggests.
My hope is that this podcast does just that - gives you new words to be able to talk about your identity as Mother, the profound transition of matrescence you have been experiencing, the work of mothering and Motherhood - ALL of it.
And that through the Re-Imagining Motherhood podcast, we begin to take off our "Masks of Motherhood" (Maushart) and create safe spaces for ALL mothers to show up vulnerably with one another - for that is when we can have REAL conversations with each other that have the potential to change the way we experience Motherhood together.
It's time to Re-Imagine Motherhood.
