Ep39: A Conversation with Motherless Mother Alex Bollen, Author of Motherdom

Alex Bollen is many things: a researcher, a postnatal practitioner, author of Motherdom: Breaking Free of Bad Science and Good Mother Myths and Adina’s neighbour. As three motherless mothers, they explore how grief reshapes motherhood, how cultural narratives fail women, and why community matters more than perfection. Drawing on research, postnatal work, and lived experience, Alex offers insight into what truly supports mothers, especially those doing it without their own. We know you'll enjoy this one!
