Why does motherhood seem to resurface wounds you thought were long buried? In this episode, Emily sits down with trauma therapist Lilly Risch to explore the deep, often surprising ways parenting can trigger unresolved trauma, and how healing is not only possible, but transformational.

Together, they discuss:

• Why becoming a parent often brings up your "stuff"
• The difference between normal parenting stress and trauma-based reactions
• What “mother wounds” really are, and how they show up
• How to identify when your triggers are rooted in past experiences
• Ways to respond more intentionally to your child without shame
• The power of repair, self-awareness, and breaking generational cycles

Whether you’re navigating mom rage, guilt, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm, this conversation is a validating reminder that you are not alone, and healing can happen even in the messiness of motherhood.

This episode is a bit different than normal - but for a good reason! So many moms right now are feeling called to engage in activism while faced with the reality that they can't necessarily leave the kids to hit the streets in protest. Earlier this week, I joined Breanne Smith for an Instagram Live to get her insights on parenting as activism and to answer the question so many moms are asking: What can I do?

The conversation offers tangible actions moms can take from home to support important causes, while also helping reframe the act of parenting as political. From how to have age-appropriate conversations with our kids to ways of engaging in the inner work necessary to create real change, Brea covers so many ways you can get involved and make a difference, starting at home.

Download Brea's free guide 100 Ways to Resist and Raise Change - Without Leaving Home or purchase her book Raising Justice Guide: Parenting and Activism for Everyday Resistance to guide you in your activism journey.

Motherhood can be beautiful — and also deeply disorienting. So many moms experience a sense of loss of self in the transition into motherhood and struggle to reconnect with who they are in this new season of life. This week, licensed professional counselor Rachael Smith joins Emily for an empowering conversation on how moms can reconnect with themselves after having kids.

In the episode, they talk about:

• Why so many moms feel lost or disconnected from themselves postpartum
• The myth of "bouncing back" and what true healing looks like
• What it really means to rediscover your authentic self as a mom
• How self-awareness can be a catalyst for reclaiming joy and purpose
• Why short-term and long-term self-care both matter (and how to actually make time for them!)

Whether you're deep in the newborn fog or several years into parenting, this episode will remind you that you're not alone — and that it's not only okay, but necessary, to take up space for yourself.
