The Lost & Found Mom | Real Talk, Postpartum Identity & Confidence for New Moms

By: Taylor C
Listen for free

The Lost & Found Mom is a podcast for new moms navigating the identity shift of early motherhood.

If you have 1–3 young children under five and feel exhausted, emotionally stretched thin, or disconnected from the woman you used to be — you are not alone. This season can feel overwhelming, overstimulating, and strangely isolating. You can track naps, diapers, meals, and milestones with precision… yet feel unsure of yourself when it comes to regulating your emotions, staying connected to your spouse, or knowing who you are outside of caregiving.

Motherhood isn’t just a role — it’s a transformation. And transformation requires new skills.

Hosted by a licensed therapist and mom, The Lost & Found Mom blends emotional validation with practical tools to help you grow confident in the skills of motherhood. We talk about nervous system regulation, responding instead of reacting, rebuilding intimacy in marriage after kids, navigating matrescence, decision fatigue, postpartum identity shifts, and finding steadiness in the chaos of early parenting.

This is not a space for perfectionism or despair. It’s for growth-oriented moms who are honest about the hard parts — but don’t want to stay stuck there. Moms who want language for what’s happening internally and real strategies to build confidence, emotional maturity, and resilience.

You’ll learn:
• How to regulate your nervous system when you feel overstimulated
• How to respond to your children with steadiness instead of reactivity
• How to reconnect with your spouse in the middle of diapers and nap schedules
• How to rebuild your identity without losing your devotion to your family
• How to strengthen your confidence in the everyday skills of mothering

And occasionally, for the woman quietly wondering if motherhood is for her, this podcast offers an honest perspective from the inside — without romanticizing or fear-mongering — so she can discern from clarity instead of noise.

Motherhood may have left you feeling lost.
But you are not disappearing.
You are becoming.
