What happens when becoming a mother doesn’t feel like a calling—but a collapse?

In this raw and revelatory episode, Beth Moore sits down with transformational coach and artist Pearl Frank to unpack the truth behind an unplanned pregnancy, the emotional spiral that followed, and the profound journey toward healing and reconnection. Pearl opens up about resisting motherhood, navigating depression and bulimia during pregnancy, and the moment she finally said out loud: “I didn’t want to be a mother.” That confession cracked everything open—and began her return to self, love, and presence with her child.

This conversation is not about parenting advice. It’s about identity death, emotional honesty, and the deep, spiritual transformation that can follow the hardest truths we’re willing to face.

🎧 What We Talk About in This Episode:

• The emotional rupture of an unplanned pregnancy
• Depression, denial, and detachment in early motherhood
• The spiritual and psychological turning point that changed everything
• Tools for emotional release, radical self-compassion, and reconnection
• Why motherhood is a rite of passage, not a role

In this deeply honest and soul-nourishing episode, I sit down with spiritual teacher, author, and fellow conscious parent Elizabeth April for a raw conversation about parenting. We explore the journey of raising emotionally intelligent children while navigating our own healing, and how being a parent today is both a sacred responsibility and a revolutionary act.

We dive into the messy middle of motherhood—the overstimulation, the paradox of wanting freedom while loving your child so fiercely, and the guilt that bubbles up when we feel like we’re falling short. From toddler meltdowns to confronting ancestral patterns, this episode holds nothing back.

We talk about:

• Why overstimulation is a nervous system issue, not a mindset problem

• Big feelings in little bodies: how to stay grounded through toddler storms

• Whether it’s ethical to have kids when the world feels like it’s falling apart

• The sacred work of reparenting yourself while raising the next generation

• Why perfection in parenting is a myth—and what kids actually need from us

This conversation will leave you feeling seen, heard, and inspired to show up for your children—and yourself—more consciously. You don’t have to do it perfectly to do it powerfully.
