Your Well Life by Misha Vayner
Your Well Life is where modern motherhood meets holistic health, healing, and real conversation.
Hosted by Misha Vayner—mom of three, trauma-informed holistic health and life mentor, and former NYC fashion exec—this podcast brings you empowering, perspective-shifting episodes to help you feel more energized in your body, more confident and clear in your mind, grounded in your spirit, and genuinely fulfilled in your life.
After hitting rock bottom in her own health, identity, and sense of self, Misha discovered a radically different way of healing—one rooted in trauma-informed, whole-person wellness that changed everything. Since then, she’s helped countless women reclaim their energy, alignment, and joy through nervous system healing, deep self-return, and lifestyle shifts that actually change the game.
Now, she’s sharing those powerful insights and lived tools to support you in creating a life that feels aligned, nourishing, and fully your own—because wellness shouldn’t feel like a second full-time job.
Each week, you’ll hear:
- Relatable solo episodes that feel like a heart-to-heart with your smartest, sassiest mama bestie
- Honest and insightful Conversations with experts on holistic health, motherhood, hormones, trauma, relationships, identity, purpose, and self-expression
- Practical tools, takeaways and perspective shifts to support your whole health and help you feel more lit up in your daily life
It’s the wellness conversation you actually want to have: honest, useful, a little edgy, and always rooted in real life. (Think Sex and the City meets nervous system healing—with a few Bravo references, obviously.)

#20: Understanding Matrescence, Rage, and the Invisible Load with Jessie Harold
What if motherhood wasn’t just something you do, but something you become? In this deeply validating conversation, I’m joined by the incredible Jesse Harold—coach, doula, and author of MotherShift—to explore the often-overlooked transformation known as matrescence: the radical, messy, beautiful evolution of becoming a mother.
We talk about what it really means to navigate this identity shift, why the “bounce back” narrative is damaging, and the real reasons so many of us feel like we’re failing. From invisible labor and motherhood rage to the systemic pressures that leave moms under-resourced and overburdened, we go all the way in.
Episode Highlights:
- 01:59 Understanding Matrescence
- 07:22 The Evolution of Motherhood
- 15:03 The Concept of Self-Tending
- 29:30 Systemic Challenges in Modern Motherhood
- 56:44 Understanding and Validating Motherhood Rage
- 01:03:26 The Mental and Emotional Load in Partnerships
- 01:21:12 Empowering Mothers and Transformation Literacy
