Seasons of Matrescence - The Podcast
Becoming a mother leaves no woman as it found her, it unravels and rebuilds her, it cracks her open, takes her to her edges, it’s both beautiful and brutal often at the same time.
This transformation has a name; matrescence. The monumental shift a woman experiences through becoming and being a mother. Like adolescence, matrescence is a time of radical transformation; physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. However unlike adolescence, matrescence remains largely unacknowledged in mainstream culture. And it’s time for that to change.
Welcome to Seasons of Matrescence - The Podcast, where we explore the changing seasons of becoming, and being a mother.
I’m your guide, Nikki McCahon, mother, matrescence educator and womens life cycle guide. Let’s explore the transformative potential of matrescence and change the conversation about motherhood, together.

Seasons of Matrescence - The Podcast
Activate your Female Power with Sharon Moloney
In this episode I chat with fertility therapist, birth educator, menstruation ambassador, hypnotherapist, author and speaker Sharon Moloney. Sharon was a benedictine nun, who left the monastery after experiencing major health issues, leading her to learn and embrace the female body as her path to spirituality.
In this episode we talk about:
- why it is more important that we're women rather than surrogate men
- the sacred opportunity we have every month as women to bring our wisdom to our homes, families, communities and the world
- the collective vision we can all hold together to radically shift the scales of power into a more harmonious balance
Sharon has written a book called ‘Activate your Female Power’ where she shares incredible wisdom about the female body, sexuality, childbirth and menstruation.
This is a really juicy episode also covering women's studies, the patriarchy, embodiment, spiritual practice of menstruation, the medicalisation of menstruation, birth and menopause.
