MAMA MATRIX EPISODE 35| MAYBE I WASN’T MEANT TO BE A MOM

EP 35: Maybe I Wasn’t Meant to Be a Mom

In this deeply honest and refreshing conversation, we sit down with Karee to unpack one of the most complex and rarely discussed topics in womanhood questioning motherhood, navigating health realities, and redefining fulfillment outside of traditional timelines.

From societal pressure to personal choice, from grief to peace, this episode explores what it really means to be a woman when motherhood may not be your path and why that journey deserves just as much respect, nuance, and celebration.

We kick things off with a fun “This or That” icebreaker before diving into Karee’s relationship with motherhood, how her perspective has evolved over time, and the moment she realized what truly felt right for her life.

Together, we discuss how health can shape reproductive choices, the emotional layers of acceptance and healing, and the lack of nuance society often shows women navigating fertility, illness, and autonomy.

We also explore adoption, fostering, and alternative paths to nurturing and why those options are not simple, universal solutions. From dating without wanting children to navigating compatibility, alignment, and the infamous “you’ll change your mind” narrative, this episode holds space for honesty, boundaries, and self-trust.

This is a conversation about choice, circumstance, healing, love, and the freedom to design a life that feels authentic whether motherhood is part of it or not.

• Questioning motherhood & releasing timelines
