Hi, so podcast. Hello, everyone. Welcome to the I don't get a podcast. Today we have a special guest. It's our first guest in a while. Her name is Kendra Williams. And she's a motherhood coach and she calls herself a truth teller.

This episode is not just for moms out there though. It's for anybody who is a mom or also intends on being a mom or have friends with mom or friends that are moms. That's so true.

So you can better understand what they're going through. And this is of course inspired. Oh, and NASA's barely any voice might not say trying to say hello.

Hi, everyone. Oh, you sound fine there. Do I sound okay? Sometimes when I like. There we go. Energy. It'll sound good. And then I wish that happens to me. I think it sounds so cool. It never happens to Lauren and I.

You guys are so you know what's so annoying so many people are like, oh my god. I'm so excited. I love when you said I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? Like I cannot make money when I sound like this.

This is a word. This is a word. Sound a little bit. There's a massive viral infection going around. And like I also read this stat that like this is on record.

The most people that have ever had the flu ever. What? Yeah. Everybody's immunity is down from being like all sheltered for a couple years. And now like people are actually you know how to be normal and like they're like, oh god, I'm so, so, so, so. Anyway, you don't have to get into that.

But I'm excited to hear about this because I have so many friends that are moms and obviously after our last podcast, we had such amazing like feedback from every all our listeners. So.

Yes, so thank you again to all of you guys who reached out said that you were related to that podcast. My little mommy meltdown. This is definitely a response to that because it's so common. And yet people are just opposed to like they're expected to just think that the first year or so motherhood is just rainbow's and butterflies.

And it certainly isn't that it's actually a huge life change that can be quite shocking. And that's what Kendra is here to talk about. She has almost 100,000 followers on Instagram. So we trust her.

So. And she talks about this and her her Instagram is at it's dot Kendra Williams. All right. Now let's get her. Let's get her on the pod.

Okay, guys, Kendra is here. Kendra. I introduced you as a like a mother coach. But there is like one thing that you specifically specialize in. And that is a word that I don't even know how to say it.

I didn't know how to type it out to you. What is it?

The word is mattresses and a really good way to remember saying it and it's it's modeled after this word adolescence.

Metressas. Adolescence. Metressas. Adolescence. Adolescence. Okay, the beginning of motherhood.

Bingo. Yeah. Lauren is a genius. And also, yes, I'm Lauren and I'm a genius.

She's the smartest interviewer. But so it's the I guess like a adolescence is the transition into adulthood as

a mattress mattress is the transition into motherhood. And what I read just really briefly is that the transition to motherhood can be so similar to puberty.

Yes, and explain why. Yeah. So we're just going to get it's not too graphic. But think back back to when we all got our first periods. That was a biological event that symbolized us becoming women.

We took a long time many years. Our friendships are changing. We used to love our parents. Now we're like, oh my god, you're so annoying.

Society's viewing you differently. It takes years to go through it. So it's like kicked off by biology.

And it's the same with mattresses. It doesn't have to be a biological baby, though. It could be a surrogacy, an adoption, a bonus kid, whatever way you get that mom title, I call it like a mom hack its foot on.
