Welcome back to Motherkind Moment. Moment is your place on a Monday for calm and connection and maybe even a shift in perspective before the week ahead.

This week I speak with Lucy Jones. She is an investigative journalist, award-winning author and has just written a new book called Matrescence.

Matresence is one of my favourite words and subjects ever. It describes the process of becoming a mother - the confusing discombobulating cocktail of emotions that happens when we transition from woman to mother. All the physical, emotional and spiritual changes. A bit like the transition from teenager to adult.

I hope you enjoy this moment episode.

As always, we continue the conversation over on Instagram, so come and join us there.
