Episode 14 – Motherhood and Personal Identity

October 18, 2025 - Prisca

In this episode, Prisca talks about motherhood and its profound impact on personal identity. Between visceral love, loss of bearings, guilt, and self-discovery, she explores the inner transformation that so many women experience when they become mothers.

She evokes the notion of matrescence, this identity reorganization comparable to adolescence, highlighted by a study from Leiden University (2017).

A sincere and sensitive episode that reminds us that taking care of oneself is not a luxury, but a necessity — for oneself, and for one's child.
