You’ve heard of adolescence—but have you heard of matrescence? It’s the word for the massive, hormonal, emotional, physical, and identity transformation you go through from preconception to postpartum. And yeah, it’s a big effing deal.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Ono Nseyo, OB/GYN and host of the Golden Hour podcast, to talk about why this transition is so wildly under-recognized and under-supported in our healthcare system—and in our culture as a whole. We’re diving into everything from postpartum mental health to snapback pressure, identity shifts, and why six-week checkups are nowhere near enough.
Whether you’re expecting, already parenting, or supporting someone who is, this episode is a must-listen for understanding the real changes that happen when you become a parent—and how we can all start normalizing them, talking about them, and demanding more support.
