About this listen

 Motherkind is the podcast for women who know that motherhood changes everything — and want to grow forward, not “bounce back”. Hosted by Zoe Blaskey, Motherkind explores the profound personal, emotional and professional transformation that happens when you become a mother. This is a space for women navigating the wild, identity-shifting years of motherhood who want to reclaim confidence, redefine ambition, and build a life that works for who they are now. Each week, Zoe sits down with world-leading experts, thought leaders, psychologists, authors and well-known figures to unpack the real experiences of modern motherhood — from matrescence and identity loss to confidence, boundaries, work, relationships and self-worth. Expect honest conversations, evidence-based insight and practical tools that help you move through this season with clarity and strength. Motherkind is not about doing more, fixing yourself, or returning to who you were before children. It’s about becoming who you are now — with intention, compassion and growth. If you’re a mother who wants to feel more like herself again — confident, grounded and excited about what’s next — this is your place. Motherkind: for the woman behind the mother.All rights reserved Parenting & Families Relationships

  • You're not behind, you're right on time

    You're not behind, you're right on time
    Apr 13 2026
    Do you ever feel like everyone else is moving faster than you? Like you should be further ahead - in your career, your life, your motherhood? This episode is your reminder that feeling isn’t truth, it’s comparison. In this powerful solo episode, Zoe challenges the idea that there’s a “right” timeline for your life, and shows why trusting your own pace might be the most freeing thing you ever do. Because what if you’re not behind at all… but exactly where you’re meant to be? Why the feeling of being “behind” is so common (and where it really comes from) How comparison - both internal and external - fuels pressure and self-doubt Why there is no universal timeline for success, motherhood, or life The power of thinking in seasons, not deadlines How to feel calmer, grounded, and more confident in where you are right now Watch every full episode on YouTube and subscribe.

    The Identity Crisis Every Mother Has — And Why Nobody Talks About It
    Apr 9 2026
    Why does no one tell you that becoming a mother changes you completely? Not just your life but your brain, your identity, your emotions, your ambition… everything. In this powerful solo episode, Zoe breaks down the concept of matrescence, the scientifically recognised transition into motherhood and why understanding it can completely change how you experience this season. Because so many mothers are silently asking: Why do I feel so different? Where did the old me go? Why does this feel so hard? This episode gives you the language, the science and the reassurance you’ve been missing. What matrescence is and how it explains the transition into motherhood Why do you feel lost, overwhelmed or different after having a baby How your brain, hormones and emotions change in motherhood Why identity loss in motherhood is normal (not a failure) How long does the motherhood transition really last Practical ways to support your mental health and identity through this stage You’ll also hear why motherhood isn’t just about loss, it’s a profound transformation that can lead to deeper purpose, stronger boundaries and a clearer sense of who you are becoming. This episode is your reminder that: You are not failing.You are not behind.You are in the middle of becoming. Watch every full episode on YouTube and subscribe. Loved this episode?
