In this profound conversation, Emily sits down with Samantha Feast to explore matrescence—the often forgotten wisdom of transitioning into and living the journey of motherhood. Samantha shares her transformative experience of being nine months postpartum, feeling lost and anxious, and discovering through feminine embodiment coaching that "returning to the feminine feels like home." She opens up about how this journey has been a deepening, again and again, over seven years.
You'll discover why understanding matrescence reveals the cyclical nature of motherhood—how our brains are literally rewired during pregnancy and birth to constantly learn and grow with our children. Samantha introduces the Maternal Mirror Deck, her beautiful creation designed to help mothers reconnect with their inner wisdom during this profound transition. She shares her wisdom about how the answers lie within, and why the heroine's journey is always a journey inward—that coming home to ourselves is the key to unlocking the doors we're trying to open as mothers.
This conversation offers gentle guidance for mothers navigating the external unknowns of motherhood by trusting their deep inner womb wisdom. Perfect for mothers feeling lost or disconnected, women preparing for motherhood, or anyone supporting mothers through this sacred life transition.
