In Mother Words | Conversations on Motherhood with Steph Ting

A tender story of loss, resilience, and renewal after pregnancy loss.

What happens when hope feels lost? In this deeply moving episode of In Mother Words, Steph speaks with Shaz, a mum of two who once believed she would never carry a child to term.

After experiencing multiple miscarriages during Covid, Shaz opens up about grief, guilt, and the fear that she might never become a mother — and how she slowly found renewal through fami...

What happens when birth doesn’t go as planned — and your story doesn’t unfold the way you hoped? In this episode of In Mother Words, I sit down with Sulin Corella, postpartum doula and founder of Papaya Wellness, to explore the emotional side of birth that is often overlooked.

We talk about what it means to hold space for mothers, why expectations can create guilt and shame, and how to begin healing from unexpected or traumatic bir...

From fear to empowerment: how hypnobirthing reshaped Maud’s journey into motherhood.

When Maud became a mother, she was terrified of giving birth. That fear led her to discover hypnobirthing — a practice that not only transformed her experience of childbirth, but reshaped the course of her life.

In this episode, Maud opens up about how motherhood pushed her to release a former identity, grieve the loss of a business she once poured...

Before motherhood, Kashmira was a founder, poet, and improv artist. Then she became a mother overnight — an identity shift that changed everything.

In this moving conversation, Kash shares what it means to lose and slowly rediscover yourself — and what finding yourself after motherhood really looks like.

We talk about:

• The guilt that lingers even in “me time”

• The hidden pressures mothers quietly carry

• The daily courage it...

Postpartum recovery is more than physical healing — it’s body, mind, and beyond.

In this episode of In Mother Words, I sit down with Laura, a senior physiotherapist and pelvic health specialist, to unpack the truths no one tells you about life after birth:

• Why so many moms delay their own recovery

• How to build a village that truly centers the mother

• Why emotional and physical healing must go hand in hand

You’ve had a baby before — so why does being pregnant again still feel so uncertain?

In this episode of In Mother Words, I sit down with Jen — a working mom expecting her second child — for an honest conversation about the emotional complexity of a second pregnancy, and what it’s really like preparing to become a mom again.

We explore:

• The pressure to “have it all figured out” as a second-time mom

• Why self-doubt creeps in (...

This Father’s Day, we’re flipping the script. Instead of focusing on overwhelm or frustration (which we all know too well), we pause to honor the fathers — through the eyes of moms.

In this special episode of In Mother Words, I ask 6 heartfelt questions that open up space for reflection on how our partners show up, love, and lead in their own way. It’s our way of seeing them, acknowledging them, and giving back.

Social media makes motherhood look like it’s all smiles, milestones, and picture-perfect homes. But behind the filters are real women facing sleepless nights, endless laundry, and moments of doubt that don’t make it into the feed.

In this episode, I sit down with two fellow moms for an honest, unscripted conversation about what motherhood really looks like — the mess, the magic, and everything in between.

There’s the version of motherhood we’re shown: Perfect photos. A smiling baby. A mom who seems to do it all.

And then there’s the version no one talks about: The silence when your partner goes back to work. The guilt of replying to emails while your newborn cries. The tears when breastfeeding feels impossible — and you blame yourself.

In this episode, I sit with Wanda — founder, speech therapist, and new mom — to talk about what re...

Nothing prepared me for how profoundly becoming a mama would challenge and reshape me. Five years in, I’m still learning, still growing.

This podcast is part of that ongoing journey — a quest for truth, connection, and a deeper understanding of what motherhood really means, beyond the noise and pressure.

In Mother Words — is my reminder that sometimes, a simple convers...
