Worthy Mother Podcast
Being a mom is hard — and not because you’re not good enough. If you’ve ever felt like you’re failing or struggling under the weight of guilt and overwhelm, you are not alone. Worthy Mother Podcast is here to validate your experience, challenge the unrealistic expectations placed on moms, and remind you that you are worthy exactly as you are.
Hosted by Emily Rose, a certified Motherhood Studies Practitioner and mom of two, this podcast explores the realities of modern motherhood, mental health, mom guilt, societal pressures, self-care, and the importance of connection. Through honest conversations with real moms and expert guests — along with solo episodes that dig deep into what makes motherhood so complicated — you’ll find validation, support, and the reminder that it’s not just you; it’s the system.
If you're ready to release the guilt, embrace self-compassion, and reclaim your identity in motherhood, this podcast is for you. Glad you’re here!

Boundaries & Decision Making In Motherhood with Monika Malan
This week I am joined by Life Coach Monika Malan for a powerful, vulnerable conversation about boundaries, decision making, and mental health in motherhood. We are digging into the hard conversations, and Monika speaks beautifully on her experiences and the impact she is working towards in the area of motherhood support.
In this episode, Monika and I chat about:
- Motherhood during the pandemic
- The challenges new moms often face
- What it looks like to set boundaries as a mother
- The complexity of decision making
- Why so many moms feel overwhelmed
- Tools for managing anxiety
A little about our guest:
From battling depression and anxiety for years, and giving birth during the start of COVID-19, level 5 lockdown, Monika now teaches other moms how to cope with anxiety. Monika is a life coach, a leader and mentor in the corporate world for over 15 years, and has overcome anxiety and insecurity as a new mom. She blends her skills to help anxious first-time moms relax and enjoy motherhood without living in constant fear of doing something wrong.
