Ep 22. Finding Your Self-Worth After Domestic Abuse with Lucy Wylde

Today's episode is with the wonderful Lucy Wylde, who is bravely sharing her experience with domestic abuse shortly into motherhood. This is a very sensitive topic, but one Lucy and I both feel if shared and spoken about, gives a chance for other people to recognise similar situations for themselves or those they love.

Lucy Wylde is a Birth Recovery Coach. Her work and passion lies in helping new mums to thrive (in body and mind), not just survive. Lucy is a highly experienced postnatal exercise specialist, advanced yoga teacher, baby massage instructor, massage therapist, matrescence activist and Mum, to Matilda, born in 2014. She has worked with the body for over 14 years and has a degree in Dance.

After a traumatic birth experience, PSTD, experiencing domestic abuse and a whole lotta healing, Lucy shares her love for all things body and mind, to help you adjust to the most life changing transition that is motherhood. Also known as Matrescence.
