About Mums F**king Matter

Mums F**king Matter with Lucy Wylde is a weekly podcast aimed at helping Mums to feel more seen and validated in their experiences of motherhood and matrescence. Just because society doesn’t (yet!) respect the monumental role of Mothers, it doesn’t mean that we can’t value ourselves. As a self-advocacy and body literacy coach, burlesque teacher, yoga instructor, perinatal exercise specialist and Mum, Lucy shares her experience, passion and gentle activism for creating greater ease, pleasure and joy in body and mind, to help you adjust to one of life’s biggest transitions; Matrescence.

   Jane is a sports development professional who trained as a matrescence coach after discovering the term when her youngest was almost one. She now combines her work in sport with her role as Mum, author of her first book and growing her coaching business. Jane believes that knowledge and understanding of matrescence has the power to change the experience women have as they become mothers. In her coaching she supports women as they experience this rite of passage, supporting them navigate the identity shifts, unmet expectations and highs and lows of motherhood, guiding them on their journey so that can be their true selves as well as the mum they want to be. Jane lives in Stirling in central Scotland with her husband and two kids. When she’s not working or mothering she can be found curled up with a book or journal & pen, or in her happy place at the athletics track training for international level masters athletics.
