Your Motherhood is Only as Powerful as Your Personhood - Revisit

Your Motherhood is Only as Powerful as Your Personhood - Revisit

People will tell you: a baby changes everything. What no one tells you is how much you change — and how hard it is to love yourself when you don't quite recognize yourself anymore.

In this conversation, Dr. Becky sits down with poet and author Cleo Wade (Remember Love) to talk about what it actually feels like to lose yourself in early parenthood — and what finding your way back looks like. They go deep on postpartum depression, the guilt that masquerades as gratitude, why the hard thoughts hit so much harder than the hard moments themselves, and the small, unglamorous practices — a walk, a shower, two words on a post-it note — that can become a real turning point.

Cleo's line has stayed with so many parents who've heard it: your motherhood is only as powerful as your personhood.

This episode is a reminder of why that's true — and a guide for how to actually live it.

We're re-releasing this episode to celebrate the launch of Rattled, our new podcast for the early years of parenthood, as well as a whole new home for the baby stage inside the Good Inside app — with sleep support, lactation expertise, workshops, and tools built around one belief: a parent who feels held can hold their baby.

Subscribe to Rattled; new episodes every Thursday.
