Summary

We all experience identity shifts throughout our lives, and the transition into motherhood can bring a very significant shift in one’s identity and how one views the world. To discuss these shifts, I’m sitting down with Dr. Veronica Eyo, a licensed therapist who specializes in supporting moms of color, and Rosalyn Davis, a community builder, breathwork practitioner, and new mom.

This episode is full of honest takes about what the transition into motherhood can feel like, how new and seasoned mothers can reconnect with themselves, and how we can all reparent ourselves.

We Also Talk About…

  • The importance of friendship for people with and without children.
  • Moving through feelings of mom guilt.
  • Why rest during the postpartum period is essential.
  • The connection between motherhood and creativity.
