Matrescence, Mum Rage and the Path Back to Balance

In this episode of In Her Season, we sit down with Dr Chelsea Todd — a holistic wellbeing practitioner whose work centres on supporting women through matrescence and the lived realities of motherhood. With a background spanning psychology, yoga, and Ayurveda, Dr Chelsea helps women understand their emotional landscape, reconnect with their bodies, and navigate this profound transition with compassion and clarity.Dr Chelsea shares the layered truth of matrescence:the emotional shifts, the physical changes, the identity transformations, the overwhelm, and the gentle process of returning to yourself in a new and evolving form.Her work honours the complexity of motherhood — creating space for rest, nervous system regulation, embodied practices, and daily rituals that allow women to feel grounded and supported, rather than stretched or alone.This conversation is a reminder that matrescence is not a phase to push through, but a deep transition that reshapes every part of who we are — deserving of patience, understanding, and community.Whether you’re moving through your own motherhood transformation, supporting a mother in this season, or seeking to understand the depth of matrescence more fully — this episode offers grounding, gentleness, and the reassurance that you don’t have to walk it alone.Anger can also be a symptom of Postpartum Anxiety, Postpartum Depression and more.
