In this episode, we chat with our friend Emily, who is deep in the trenches of mom life, about the wild transformation that happens when you become a mother. We’re talking about the surprising emotional shifts (hello, mom rage), learning how to do something purely for enjoyment without guilt, and why stepping into motherhood means shedding old versions of yourself—whether you like it or not.

We also dive into homesteading with kids, the need for self-preservation in motherhood, and why carving out space for yourself isn’t just nice—it’s necessary for survival. If you’ve ever wondered if you’re the only one struggling with these massive changes, consider this episode your permission slip to feel it all, drop the guilt, and remember that you’re still you. Emily is incredibly thoughtful and intentional in her parenting and lifestyle choices. We walked away from this conversation feeling uplifted and inspired and we’re sure you will, too.
