About this episode
Catrin Kemp discusses the therapeutic benefits of writing for mothers navigating the challenges of motherhood.
I’m joined by Catrin Kemp from New Mothers Circle to talk about the power of writing in motherhood and how putting words to your experience can help you process what you’re feeling. We explore journalling, reflection, identity shifts and why writing can be such a grounding tool during pregnancy, postpartum and early motherhood. This is a gentle, thoughtful conversation for any mother wanting to feel more connected to herself through the changes motherhood brings.
