Episode 1:

Lael Stone on finding herself in motherhood

In this very first episode of Life After Birth I chat to Lael about her experience of becoming a mother and travelling this path for the past 20 odd years. We talk about her experience with a challenging birth, the far reaching impacts of that, surviving her first year as a mother, identity shifts, finding herself again, and raising teens.

Lael Stone is a mother of three big kids - teenagers and young adults, and a  champion of connection and creating harmony in families. Lael is an educator, TEDx speaker, author, mother, and parenting counselor with over 18 years of experience. Lael is also the co-host of The Aware Parenting Podcast and now an author with her first book Raising Resilient and Compassionate Children due for release in October 2022.
