#199 – Finding Your New Identity with Gemma Mercer

One of my favourite parts of spreading matresence into the world is being able to talk to these Mamas a few years after we first connected and see the massive change and transformation in them, in their sense of self, their happiness within themselves. My guest today is no different. Gemma Mercer is a Mama Rising facilitator and shares her story of her own inner split and figuring out who she was without a corporate identity. Listen as Amy and Gemma discuss:

• When levels of stress and anxiety in our career can mean struggles with fertility and our entire wellbeing.
• How the transformation of matresence can begin the moment you contemplate motherhood.
• The intensity of motherhood alongside the pandemic and when we don't feel like we have as much to strive for as we did within our career.
• Making sure we are bringing some new parts back into our life from a place of rest and health first.

The conversation with Gemma is inspiring because it demonstrates how much matresence came into her ear and finally gave words to exactly what she had been feeling. Like so many of us, once we dive into the understanding it is a powerful shift of acknowledge and recognition that will change the world. To connect further with Gemma you can visit her website www.gemmamercer.com or follow her on Instagram @gemma_mercer.
