Our sweetest bbs, this one came out of us like a wave we didn't see coming 🥹 We mentioned in our 3rd Hugs Hotline (https://open.spotify.com/episode/7mqDW2aTcHj99nzeDP0wKy?si=sGY_l5YHT6CuCtXlQlko_w) how much we looove growing older… but it recently dawned on us that - oh! there’s actually plenty for us to grieve from our past selves 👀

As Viv is entering her third trimester and feeling the weight of what it means to say goodbye to a version of yourself you didn't know you'd miss, this topic is extra front of mind. We're getting into the fear of aging, the grief that hides inside exciting life transitions, pregnancy body changes, mom guilt before baby even arrives, and why two feelings can be true at the same time. Ro shares what it's actually like on the other side and the moment her mom said something that changed the way she sees herself as a parent ✨

If you're in a season of becoming something new and you feel equal parts excited and terrified—hi, same, welcome. You're not losing yourself. You're integrating and expanding 💛 What life transition are you in right now?
