Who were you before motherhood — and who are you now?

In this episode, we explore identity in motherhood and the profound shift that happens. We talk about who we were before kids, how motherhood changed our sense of self, and the parts of us we still want to grow into.

We name both the grief and the beauty that come with this identity change. There is no going back to an old version of ourselves — but there is integration. We discuss what it means to weave our motherhood identity into our whole selves, without losing who we are.

If you’ve ever felt unsure of who you are after becoming a mom, missed parts of your pre-kids identity, or wondered how to hold all of yourself at once, this conversation is for you.

Before the new year begins, we wanted to pause and name the why.

Why Momming Out Loud.

Why now.

Why gathering together matters.

This short holiday clip reflects on the beliefs and experiences that led us here—and opens the door to our Momming Out Loud Circle launching in January. If you’ve been craving deeper connection, space to speak freely, or a reminder that you’re not alone, consider this your invitation.
