Mothergroup The Podcast

Mothers Sharing Their Stories of Challenge and Transformation Motherhood. Join me, Pelvic Physiotherapist Caitlin Ford as I talk to Real Mums about their 'Hard Thing' and whether there is a greater meaning to it all. Is there a purpose in the hard? Does this hardship in fact happen to us all?? Does it help us grow and evolve and get rid of the parts of our life holding us back?? Is Motherhood a deeply spiritual experience?? Could there be medicine in the sharing, replacing the shame with strength and power?! I have SO many questions! And more! In a world overflowing with content, these unedited and real stories are designed to leave you feeling inspired. You can find me at www.mothergroup.com.au
