Motherkind is the podcast for women who know that motherhood changes everything — and want to grow forward, not “bounce back”. Hosted by Zoe Blaskey, Motherkind explores the profound personal, emotional and professional transformation that happens when you become a mother. This is a space for women navigating the wild, identity-shifting years of motherhood who want to reclaim confidence, redefine ambition, and build a life that works for who they are now. Each week, Zoe sits down with world-leading experts, thought leaders, psychologists, authors and well-known figures to unpack the real experiences of modern motherhood — from matrescence and identity loss to confidence, boundaries, work, relationships and self-worth. Expect honest conversations, evidence-based insight and practical tools that help you move through this season with clarity and strength. Motherkind is not about doing more, fixing yourself, or returning to who you were before children. It’s about becoming who you are now — with intention, compassion and growth. If you’re a mother who wants to feel more like herself again — confident, grounded and excited about what’s next — this is your place. Motherkind: for the woman behind the mother.

What listeners will find here

Why motherhood can change you more deeply than anyone warns you about
Matrescence is the focus here: the physical, emotional and psychological transformation of becoming a mother. Zoe explores why identity, relationships, priorities and ambitions can shift after having a baby, and why that adjustment often takes much longer than expected.
A sharper playbook for mothers who are tired of apologising at work
Motherhood and ambition are the focus here, as Zoe brings together Emma Grede, Vanessa Kingori and Michelle Kennedy on guilt, boundaries and workplace double standards. It’s aimed at mothers who want a fulfilling career without feeling they must hide family commitments or overprove themselves.
A candid AMA on sugar, self-trust, career clarity, and grief
This episode tackles quitting refined sugar, building self-worth, and figuring out your next career move in your 40s. It blends practical exercises on confidence and work with a deeply personal reflection on grief, support, and returning to something you love.
