The Motherhood Metamorphosis
They say that when a baby is born, so is a mother. But while you are there to help your baby grow into the person he or she is meant to be, who is there to help you? Many women feel lost and alone when they become mothers, wondering “who AM I now?”
Sometimes it feels like transformation from woman to mother is as radical as a caterpillar’s transformation into a butterfly.
Did you know that inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar literally turns into goop before it rearranges itself into a butterfly? This podcast is about the goop, what soul transformation looks like as you transition from being a woman to a mom.
Your baby’s growth matters. But yours does too. You’re not alone. I’m your host, Brittany Meng.
Welcome to the Motherhood Metamorphosis.

Sidney Olivia Garcia: How practicing embodiment can help us through the transitions and stress of motherhood
Love this episode? Send me a message here!
Sidney and I talk about her challenging transition into motherhood and how learning about her own struggles with transitions, stress, trauma has led to her life-work in becoming an embodiment coach, helping women to come home to to their bodies and bring well-being to their families, starting with themselves.
We both share personal stories of transition, stress and life upheavals and how we've learned what helps us move through our stress cycles so we can be mental and emotionally healthy and present within ourselves and for our families.
We share lots of practical examples for managing stress as we are managing the emotions for so many people in our families, as well as how we are breaking the mindset that out needs as moms need to come last.
This is a practical, potentially life-changing episode. Don't miss it. (Plus, I let loose and get a little sweary).
