Mamahood After Trauma Podcast
Trauma-Informed Parenting | Emotional Regulation | Manage Triggers in Motherhood

Are you a mama carrying childhood trauma while trying to parent with patience, presence, and peace? You’re not alone — and you’re exactly where you need to be.

I’m Emily Cleghorn, trauma-surviving mama of two and Trigger Recovery Coach for Mamas. This podcast is where we stop pretending we’re “fine” and start healing out loud. Here, we talk honestly about maternal mental health, trauma-informed motherhood, and what it really takes to regulate your emotions and manage triggers in the middle of raising kids.

Each week, you’ll get trauma-informed conversations, practical healing strategies, and real talk about:

✨ Managing triggers in motherhood without guilt or shame
✨ Emotional regulation when everything feels like too much
✨ Building resilience after childhood, emotional, or birth trauma
✨ Reclaiming your peace while raising securely attached, connected kids
✨ Breaking generational cycles through grounded, heart-led parenting

Whether you're navigating postpartum triggers, coping with trauma resurfacing in motherhood, or simply trying to stay calm after a hard day, this show gives you the tools, stories, and support you need to heal without losing yourself.

This isn’t just a podcast — it’s a lifeline for cycle-breaking mamas rebuilding their lives from the inside out.

Take a deep breath. You’re not doing this alone.
Let’s walk this healing path together — one episode, one moment of peace, one breakthrough at a time.

🎧 Subscribe now and begin your journey toward peaceful, trauma-informed parenting.
