About this podcast
Whether you're trying to conceive or are a few years into toddlerhood, we know that the transition to motherhood can leave you feeling a little (or a lot!) stuck, overwhelmed, and alone.
Join perinatal psychologists Dr. Caroline Dickens (toddler mom) and Dr. Hila Sachs (first-time mom-to-be) as they share their professional expertise and personal experiences alongside guest experts to cover all the motherhood challenges you're struggling with the most.
You'll leave each 45-minute episode with new perspectives and tools that will help you find more peace, joy, fulfillment, and hopefully a little humor, through even the hardest parts of the transition to motherhood.
