16. Why Pregnancy Feels Like a No Man’s Land (And How It’s Actually Preparing You for Motherhood)

If you’re pregnant right now and feeling like you’re stuck in a weird inbetween space where your old life doesn’t quite fit anymore but you’re not yet a mother, this episode is for you. This transitional phase can feel unsettling, but what if it’s actually preparing you for what’s to come?

In this episode, we dive into:
✔ The emotional and physical shifts of pregnancy that feel like a loss but are actually a soft landing into motherhood.
✔ Why pregnancy can make you feel disconnected from your old passions and interests.
✔ How to embrace this liminal space instead of resisting it.
✔ The role of support and guidance from those who’ve walked this path before you.

This is part one of a three-episode arc. Next up, we’ll dive into matrescence - the identity shift that happens when you become a mother. And after that, we’ll explore how to honour the maiden version of yourself as you step into this new chapter.
