40: You Asked. I Answered: Listener Q&A on Healing, Identity & Rebirth
In this special Listener Q&A episode, Diane answers your most vulnerable and powerful questions—on postpartum healing, identity loss and rediscovery, pelvic floor care, and the sacred mess of transformation.
From what’s really normal 6 months postpartum to how to know when it’s time to let go of something that no longer fits, this episode is a soft but strong reminder:
You’re not broken. You’re becoming.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
In this episode, we explore:
What’s actually normal 6 months after birth
How to rebuild your identity after motherhood
Why your pelvic floor deserves more than a 6-week checkup
The real meaning of “midwifing your life”
How to know when it’s time to release something you once loved
The most powerful rebirth moment in Diane’s life
