What happened to us?

In this episode, what happened to us?, we are slowing down to sit with the changes that motherhood brings. The visible ones but also the ones no one sees. The way our bodies feel unfamiliar, your thoughts feel heavier, and your world starts to look different than at once did. We talk about the stress, the confusion, the quiet moments and wondering where you went. This isn't about losing yourself forever, but about noticing the changes and beginning to understand them, because before we can find our way back to ourselves, we have to ask… What happened to us?
