Mothers at Midnight Podcast
Discover a safe space for mothers where the challenges and triumphs of motherhood are explored with depth and understanding.
Rose Harvey and Indigo Melrose, both seasoned psychotherapists and mothers, warmly invite you to join them in candid conversations that go beyond the conventional narratives of motherhood.
As your hosts, Indigo and Rose share not just their professional insights but also their personal experiences, delving into the complexities of motherhood. Beyond the surface of unconditional love for our children, they encourage you to set aside the familiar "mother" role and embrace the full spectrum of the woman within.
Pour yourself a cup of hot cocoa or a glass of wine and immerse yourself in intimate, vulnerable, and occasionally challenging discussions about the genuine experiences of motherhood. These conversations are more than just storytelling; they form a collective exploration of the tough, confronting, and sometimes overwhelming aspects of parenting.
Find your comfortable spot, settle in, and join Indigo and Rose as they navigate the authenticity of motherhood, enriched with insights from experts around the world.
