What if the hardest part of motherhood isn't the sleepless nights — but the quiet loss of the person you used to be?

Camille sits down with Danielle Garrett, a registered psychotherapist specializing in family work and attachment theory, to explore matrescence: the profound identity shift that unfolds through pregnancy, birth, and the day-to-day work of raising a child. They get honest about intrusive thoughts, mom rage, postpartum anxiety, the invisible load, and the complicated grief of missing your old life — even when you love your child more than anything.

This is the conversation most people don't have — and the one every mother deserves to hear.

This conversation is not intended to describe or represent acute postpartum mental health conditions, including postpartum anxiety, postpartum obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), postpartum depression, or postpartum psychosis. These are serious mental health experiences that can require specialized clinical support and intervention.

The purpose of this discussion is to normalize and create language around the broad, often complex transition into motherhood, while recognizing that every woman’s experience is unique. If someone is experiencing significant distress or symptoms related to their mental health, seeking support from a qualified healthcare or mental health professional is encouraged.

What if the problem was never you — it was the plan?

Most fitness and nutrition advice was built for men's bodies. It assumes consistency looks the same every day, every week, all month long. But for women, that's simply not how our biology works.

In this episode, I'm joined by Sarah Boyd — certified personal trainer, nutrition and lifestyle coach, women's health coach, and author of The Habit Revolution — to talk about why the one-size-fits-all approach to food and fitness fails women, and what to do instead.

We dive into the four phases of the menstrual cycle and how to adapt your nutrition, exercise, and sleep habits to each one. We talk about why cravings aren't a lack of willpower, why lifting weights matters more than cardio (especially in midlife), and how to redefine what consistency actually looks like for a woman's body.

If you've ever felt like you were failing at being healthy, this episode will change the way you see yourself — and your cycle.

In this episode, host Camille sits down with Anusha Gandhi — endometriosis and chronic illness advocate, health navigator, and founder of Femade, an Ottawa-based women's health centre focused on chronic pain and reproductive care — for a deeply honest conversation about the systemic bias women face in healthcare.

They explore why women's symptoms are so often dismissed as stress or anxiety, the long history of medical bias rooted in hysteria, and the staggering reality that women weren't required to be included in clinical trials until 1993. Anusha and Camille also get personal — sharing their own experiences of having to "pitch" their pain to doctors and learning to advocate for themselves in a system that wasn't built with them in mind.
