Motherhood changes us. As the generation who were told we could do anything and be anything we want to be, accepting the changes that come with motherhood can be very difficult.

This podcast is a collection of stories of matrescence, motherhood, womanhood and change, told by our Mama Rising coaches and mothers around the globe. Through our stories and community, we hope that the wisdom of the rite of passage of matrescence spreads far and wide, and that we can begin to change the way we see, value and support ALL mothers everywhere. Because we really need it.

#305 | TAKE THE MIC | WITH CLAIRE HOLLOWAY

A Quiet Moment Together on The Happy Mama Movement Podcast


In this solo episode, we're joined by one of our incredible Mama Rising® Movement Facilitators, Claire Holloway—a devoted guide for women on the journey of matrescence and the founder of The Centre of Bright Beginnings. Claire opens her heart and shares her personal story of becoming a mother, what surprised her, what healed her, and how she now supports others navigating their own bright beginnings.


We talk about:

  • Shifting Expectations of Motherhood: When conception doesn’t come easily, even for those who’ve always been surrounded by babies, it can challenge deeply held beliefs about how motherhood begins.
  • The Turning Point: Sometimes the journey to parenthood starts with slowing down, letting go of structure, and making intentional space—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
  • The Invisible Load of Pain: Chronic pain and isolation in pregnancy and postpartum can go unseen, yet they shape the entire experience of early motherhood—and highlight the need for better support.
  • Finding Language in Matrescence: Discovering a name for the transformation of motherhood can be a powerful moment of clarity—finally making sense of the shifts across conception, birth, and beyond.
  • The Power of The Village: A supported matrescence is rarely a solo effort—it thrives with the right team in place, whether through professionals, friends, or accessible community resources.
  • Yoga as a Lifeline and a Lens: Yoga becomes more than movement; it can be a deeply personal philosophy that aligns with and supports the rhythms of motherhood.
  • A Vision for the Future: The dream of a collaborative, whole-person perinatal care space—rooted in physical, emotional, and spiritual support—reminds us how powerful community can be for mothers, no matter where they are on their journey.



ABOUT CLAIRE HOLLOWAY:

Claire Holloway is the founder of The Centre of Bright Beginnings, where she supports people throughout the journey of matrescence.
