THE BIRTH OF MATRESCENCE

I’ve learned so much on my motherhood journey, but without a doubt the biggest lesson for me has been learning to mother myself.  

A few months following the arrival of my second daughter, I lost of my own mother. Suddenly, I was navigating the newborn stage and toddlerhood, while also dealing with profound grief.

My mother was my guiding light, consistently emphasizing the importance of self-care. With her gone, I quickly found myself depleted, struggling to meet my own needs while caring for my little ones.

But it was during this difficult period, mothering in the absence of being mothered, that I truly understood the essence of motherhood and I learned to also mother myself.

This lesson and my desire to share it with you, lies at the heart of Matrescence.
