About this listen

Grounded & Becoming is a podcast about the journey of becoming — becoming a woman, becoming a mother, and becoming more yourself as life unfolds.

Through solo reflections and honest conversations with everyday women, we explore the real, often unspoken parts of growth — the difficult, the beautiful, and the lessons we wish we knew sooner.

This is a soft, honest space to pause, reflect, and feel less alone in the process of becoming — no matter what season you’re in.

A podcast for the woman you are now and the one you are still becoming.✨️

  • The Identity Shifts No One Warns You About
    Feb 1 2026

    In this episode, I’m talking about the quiet identity shifts no one really prepares you for — the ones that don’t come with clear beginnings or endings.

    The moments where life changes, and suddenly you don’t fully recognize yourself anymore.

    Where you can love your life and still grieve who you used to be.

    I share my own experience of noticing this shift after becoming a mother, and why this conversation isn’t just about motherhood — it’s about becoming something new before you’ve had time to catch up.

    If you’re in an in-between season, feeling disconnected from yourself, this episode is for you.

    ✨ This in-between isn’t empty — it’s where becoming starts.

  • Healing Before Becoming
    Jan 25 2026

    In this episode, I reflect on the quiet moment after change—the moment when you stop pushing forward and allow yourself to land where you are.

    We talk about slowing down, listening inward, and gently tending to what’s been stirred beneath the surface before moving on. This is a conversation about being honest with yourself, giving your season the care it deserves, and trusting that this quiet work matters.

    You don’t have to have it all figured out.

    This, too, is part of your becoming.

    Stay grounded ✨️🌿
