437: How I’m Preparing for Motherhood (Physically, Emotionally, and in Business)

from Feminine as F*ck · host Monica Yates

In this very special episode, Monica takes you behind the scenes of how she’s been preparing for this next season of her life as she gets ready to meet her baby—not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, somatically, and spiritually. She’s opening up about how she’s used pregnancy as a nine-month portal of energetic attunement: a sacred season of identity recalibration, nervous system expansion, and radical support stacking before it’s “needed.” Whether you’re preparing for motherhood, navigating postpartum prep, building a business, or standing at the edge of your next quantum leap, this conversation will anchor you deeper into your feminine power—and remind you that you don’t have to wait for burnout to ask for support.INSIDE THE EPISODE: 🤰🏼 How pregnancy became her somatic training ground for motherhood🤰🏼 Why most women wait too long to receive support (and HOW to change that)🤰🏼 The nervous system tools she’s using before the baby arrives🤰🏼 Why she invested in doulas, lactation support, and a postpartum team🤰🏼 How she and Hal structured the business for ease during maternity leave🤰🏼 Tapping into the mother identity through mindset, journaling + vision work🤰🏼 Her unfiltered take on fear, surrender, and preparing emotionally for postpartum +++++  As Mentioned In The Episode —  ⇢ Join the Email List — Maternity Leave Updates: https://monicayates.myflodesk.com/n0iun6xpn8  ⇢ Binge the Program — Empoweredly Submissive: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/empoweredly-submissive?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=evergreen_general ⇢ Learn the Nervous System Expansion — inside Queen Alchemy: https://monicayateshealth.com/pages/queen-alchemy?utm_source=flodesk&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=qa-16 ⇢ Read the blog — Pregnancy Must Haves: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/womens-health/pregnancy-must-haves  ⇢ Listen to the Podcast Episode — Preparing for Pregnancy: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/409-our-conception-story-everything-we-did-to-prepare-and-boost-fertility  ⇢ Listen to the Podcast Episode — Pregnancy Q&A: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/e422-422-pregnancy-q-a-spirit-babies-nutrition-birth-daycare-gentle-parenting-and-more ⇢ Listen to the Podcast Episode — How to Boost Your Fertility: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/381-how-to-boost-your-fertility-for-healthy-conception-pregnancy-postpartum-and-beyond-men-listen-to-this-too  ⇢ Listen to the Podcast Episode — The Energetic Reasons for Infertility: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/podcast/348-energetic-reasons-for-infertility-and-other-period-issues-painful-periods-pms-endometriosis-etc  ⇢ Bringing Up Bébé book — https://www.amazon.com/Bringing-Up-Bebe-Discovers-Parenting/dp/0143122967  ⇢ Ina May’s Guide to Childbirth — https://www.amazon.com/Ina-Mays-Guide-Childbirth-Gaskin/dp/0553381156 ⇢ Order the BOOK — Becoming HER: https://www.becomingherbook.com/ ⇢ Monica’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/monicayateshealth⇢ WATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/PH0aZAOSe-M?si=Nn7q8RopbIwwsuqz ⇢ Full, SEARCHABLE Podcast Directory: https://monicayateshealth.com/blogs/feminine-as-f-ck-podcast/podcast-directory Remember to leave a written review on Apple Podcasts, screenshot it before you submit it, and email it to us at [email protected] to receive an exclusive meditation track as a 'thank you' from Monica. This podcast and its content is copyright of Monica Yates Health © and Feminine as F*ck ©.
