About this episode
In this vulnerable solo episode, Lindsey opens up about becoming a mom later than she expected—getting married at 35, having her first child at 36, and now navigating the emotional, physical, and spiritual questions around expanding her family in her late 30s.
Ahead, she shares the mindset shifts that helped her release the pressure of society’s timeline + trust the deeper timing of her life. From the fear of getting older to the comparison trap on social media, she explores what it actually looks like to build a life + family that aligns with your truth.
