Podcast Overview

Mothering Out Loud is the podcast that says the things most moms are afraid to say — out loud, honestly, and without shame. Whether you’re pregnant and feeling everything all at once, in the fog of postpartum, navigating toddler meltdowns, rediscovering your identity as your kids grow, or even adjusting to life as a new grandmother — this space is for you. We talk about the quiet parts of motherhood: the guilt, the burnout, the resentment, the anger, the identity shifts, the grief for the version of you that feels lost — and the joy that sometimes feels muted by exhaustion. You don’t have to mother in silence anymore. Hosted by Kristin Yaroscak — mom of two grown daughters, certified postpartum doula, pediatric sleep consultant, and founder of Western CT Doula — each episode offers real talk, gentle support, and emotional validation for moms in every season of motherhood. 🌿 Come as you are. Leave feeling a little less alone. 🎙️ Let’s mother out loud — together.

<p>Lately, life has felt very full.</p><p><br></p><p>Between work, caregiving, responsibilities, and the constant pressure to keep up, it’s easy to move through our days without ever really slowing down enough to experience them while we’re living them.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, I reflect on the idea of “slow motherhood,” the ordinary moments we miss most, and the pace of modern life that so many mothers quietly struggle with.</p><p><br></p><p>This is a gentle conversation about presence, overcommitting, caregiving, nostalgia, and learning how to create more space to breathe inside our lives.</p><p><br></p><p>Whether you’re in the thick of raising little ones, navigating a new season of motherhood, or simply feeling exhausted by how fast life moves, I hope this episode feels like a reminder to slow down just a little and be present for the moments that matter most.</p><p><br></p><p>💛 Connect with me here:</p><p>https://www.westernctdoula.com/podcast<strong></p>
