Finally, we discuss how she created the movements that formed B the Method, how important intention and form are in your workouts, why it’s essential to engage the pelvic floor for sexual health and digestion, and more.Key Takeaway / Points:On reconnecting with your partner after having children and finding what works for you as a coupleOn Lia’s experience with becoming a mother and working on making space for herselfHow our stress manifests physicallyHow growing up in Hawaii shaped Lia’s relationship to movementHow she came to pilates and how it changed the way she exercisedOn shifting to a career in pilates and carving out a businessOn creating the movements that formed B the MethodOn the power of intention and form in your workoutsOn the importance of engaging the pelvic floor for sexual health and digestionWhy pelvic health isn’t just important for pregnancy and postpartumOn wellness trends Lia is loving and the ones she can’t get behindTry B the Method here and use code CAMERON for your first month freeThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

282: “Who Am I Now?” Matrescence and Identity Crises After Becoming a Mom with Psychotherapist Elizabeth Baron
In this episode, I sit down with Elizabeth Baron, a maternal mental health psychotherapist, to discuss all things matrescence: the physical and psychological changes that come from being a mother. Elizabeth shares the history of the term, how matrescence is a long-term journey, and how overwhelming feelings of ambivalence can play a role. We talk about the “apology tour” of motherhood, the range of experiences that can come from matrescence, and why grief over leaving your pre-motherhood life is natural. She also shares why the four to six month postpartum mark is often significant for mothers, what the “Ghost in the Nursery” paper reveals about reparenting ourselves, how we can allow our children to become who they are, and more.Key Takeaway / Points:On matrescence, what it means, and the history of the termOn matrescence being a long-term journeyOn ambivalence, the constant push-pull, and the shame that comes from itOn the “apology tour” of motherhoodOn the range of experiences that come out of matrescenceOn the unrealistic image of the perfect motherOn the grief that comes with leaving your pre-motherhood lifeOn the scientific data from studying matrescenceWhy the four-six month postpartum mark is often significant for mothersOn the comparison culture that has tainted our expectations for ourselvesOn the “Ghost in the Nursery” paper and reparenting ourselvesOn parenting your children individuallyOn allowing our children become who they areOn the reconciliation process in motherhoodHow Elizabeth fills her cupThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
