In this powerful episode of The YAM Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Christy Matusiak, a holistic chiropractic physician, to dive deep into the realities of motherhood—the mental load, the chaos, and the unspoken struggles that so many women face.

Motherhood is often painted as a picture-perfect experience, but behind the scenes, many women carry emotional, physical, and energetic burdens that go unnoticed. Dr. Christy shares her expertise on how these subconscious patterns, inherited trauma, and societal expectations shape a mother’s well-being.

In This Episode, We Explore:

🔹 The unseen mental load of motherhood and how it affects women’s health
🔹 How a mother’s pregnancy experience can imprint on a child’s subconscious
🔹 The cultural conditioning that makes mothers put themselves last
🔹 Strategies to reclaim self-care and create balance amidst the chaos
🔹 The power of holistic healing in motherhood

Dr. Christy shares eye-opening stories and practical wisdom to help mothers recognize the patterns that keep them stuck and how they can start prioritizing themselves without guilt.
