About this listen
"Life changing" Red Magazine
"An important and impressive book, that will change how you experience motherhood" Dr Julie Smith
Modern motherhood is insane. We’re expected to parent perfectly, bounce back, enjoy every moment, forge ahead at work and keep smiling through all the endless expectations – all whilst forgetting about ourselves.
Based on years of research, proven transformational coaching tools, world-leading expertise from hundreds of podcast guests such as Dr Gabor Mate Philippa Perry and Dr Becky Kennedy and real-life stories from the Motherkind community, this validating, judgement-free book will help you to:
- Understand the pressures of modern motherhood, and why you’re not failing
- Support yourself through the daily ups and downs
- Change your relationship with guilt, and finally feel good enough
- Handle your challenging emotions and reactions in a new way
- Learn why ‘self-care’ doesn’t work – and what does
- Ditch the idea of ‘balance’ and embrace boundaries instead
This empowering book will give you the tools you need to thrive in modern motherhood and become your happiest self – for yourself and your children.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

"Beautifully, skilfully and gently challenging the mother we feel we should be, to make space for both the mother we actually are and to allow us to grow into the one we realistically can be.” Anna Mather
"This book is a wonderful and insightful guide and toolkit every mother needs to find her happy, joyful motherhood" Dr Shefali
"“Zoe has created a movement for mothers who refuse to get stuck in the guilt, perfectionism and pressure of modern motherhood. This book is the guide every mother needs in her hands.” Emma Reed Turrell
"It is the motherhood guide every modern mother needs – I just wish it existed sooner” Helen Glover
"Reading this book will make you a happier, more confident mother. Zoe is both the expert and wise friend we all need” Julia Samuel
“Motherkind is a book every Mother should read, it’s a breath of fresh air in a world full of judgment and pressure. If you've ever felt guilty, not good enough or overwhelmed – this book will be your lifeline” Millie Mackintosh
"Motherkind is the book we all need right now and the book that will continue to guide us in years to come” Zoe Williams
"Zoe is incredible. I have learnt so much from listening to her podcast, I'm a huge fan! This book is such a wonderful resource for ANY parent, to help them understand why parenting is so hard. This book offers us confidence and reassurance that we AREN'T doing anything wrong and helps us truly understand ourselves after having a baby – something I've struggled with for a few years. Personally I feel like all mothers, parents, carers and mothers-to-be should have a copy of this book and should be taught the word – Matrescence. Thank you for introducing it to me, Zoe” Charlotte Stirling Reed
As a mother of four grown-up children I struggled SO much with being a mum. I gave my absolute all, but never felt I was enough, always felt I fell short, never living up to the expectations I felt others, and myself, put upon me.
How I wish I had read this book then!
I am now a grandmother to five young children, so I have still benefitted a lot from Zoe’s words of wisdom and encouragement.
I am also a midwife and I teach antenatal classes. I will be recommending Motherkind to all my expectant parents.
I have listened to the audiobook, plan to re-listen to it, and have bought the book!
Well done and thank you Zoe for this refreshing, honest and beautiful book that will help so many mothers gain a new, better perspective of their life and their important roles.
Time to let go of shame, guilt and disappointment, and to say that I was, and still am, enough.
