Pregnancy and motherhood are some of the most transformative experiences a woman can face. But finding content that speaks to the depth of that journey—without shoving a product, a lifestyle, or a one-size-fits-all ideology down your throat—is nearly impossible. That’s why I created Back from the Borderline Baby.
After the success of my first podcast, Back from the Borderline, where I documented my journey of healing emotional wounds and confronting my fears around motherhood, this spinoff was born. It’s a dedicated space to house the pregnancy and motherhood content I wish I’d had during my own journey.
This isn’t your typical parenting podcast. There are no perfect mothers here. No guilt trips. No influencer-driven checklists of what you “need” to buy.
This is a space for women who crave something deeper: a thoughtful, minimalist approach to pregnancy and motherhood that honors your intuition, your journey, and the profound inner work that comes with this transition.
Each episode dives into the tools and insights I wish I’d had when I was navigating the same path. We’ll unpack everything from labor prep and postpartum recovery to the shadow work of breaking generational cycles. You’ll find nuanced conversations about motherhood that blend the practical with the spiritual, the exoteric with the esoteric, and the modern with the mythological.
This podcast isn’t about giving you answers – it’s about helping you dare to trust yourself enough to find your own. Whether you’re in the first trimester, chasing a toddler, or simply curious about what motherhood might mean for you, these episodes are your guide to navigating the noise, reclaiming your intuition, and creating a path that feels authentic to you.
Think of this as an alchemical audio-only sanctuary. A calming, intimate escape from the endless screens and curated perfection. You can listen in the car, on a walk, or in the bath. Wherever you are, this podcast meets you where you’re at—no judgment, no sugar-coating, just real, honest reflections from a woman walking the transformative path of Maiden to Mother right alongside you. We’re coming back from the borderline, baby.

Motherhood reshapes the Self in profound and unexpected ways. In the second part of this series, we delve into the psychological and existential depths of postpartum—a journey marked by identity loss, raw emotion, and the transformative power of self-compassion. This episode focuses on understanding the complexity of motherhood, beyond the clichés and idealized narratives.
We begin by exploring postpartum as an initiation—a passage into a new identity that demands the shedding of an old one. Drawing on depth psychology, we’ll reflect on how the fourth trimester brings us face-to-face with parts of ourselves we’ve never met, often accompanied by a sense of mourning for the autonomy and life left behind.
From there, we tackle the raw, often unspoken aspects of postpartum: simmering anger, intrusive thoughts, and surges of anxiety rooted in unmet needs, lack of sleep, and societal pressures. Inspired by thinkers like Audre Lorde and Jung, we’ll discuss how emotions like rage can be seen as vital signals rather than personal failures—responses to crossed boundaries, heightened instincts, and unmet expectations.
We’ll also confront the grief of birth experiences that didn’t go as planned, the shifting dynamics with partners, family, and friends, and the struggle with body image in a culture obsessed with “bouncing back.” Each of these experiences adds to the tapestry of postpartum—challenging, overwhelming, yet offering opportunities to redefine care, strength, and identity.
Finally, we’ll explore how self-compassion can serve as a grounding force in this turbulent period, helping to navigate the intensity without striving for perfection or external validation. This episode invites you to release preconceived notions of motherhood “success” and instead embrace the process as it unfolds—messy, challenging, and deeply human.
