    119 I Mother The Mother Podcast is back!

    In this comeback episode of the Mother the Mother podcast, host McLean McGown reflects on her life-changing experience. She talks about how the difficulties of the pandemic caused her to reevaluate and come back with a fresh purpose, as well as how she has changed as a mother, woman, and mentor. This episode looks deeply into the complexities of modern motherhood, hormone fluctuations, and regulating the beginning and end of life. What does it mean to live your truth in a society that silences you? From hormonal changes to cultural expectations, McLean examines the emotional burden women bear and how these pressures show themselves in relationships, family dynamics, and self-identity. Are you sick and tired of being swamped, humiliated, or silenced by outdated norms? McLean encourages you to reclaim your voices, face your anxieties, and accept the complexity of your paths. This episode provides insights to help you move through life's ever-changing seasons with conviction and grace through open conversations on perimenopause, parenting, and the strength of unity. Quotes:●     “We all deserve, by simply being born, to live in freedom, use our voice, and follow our own moral code.” ●     “Motherhood should unite us, not divide us. I’m here for unity, not clickbait or conflict.” ●    “Our time is our most precious commodity. How we spend it shapes our lives and the legacy we leave.” Timestamps:[0:00] Introduction and Podcast Relaunch [2:00] Living in Your Truth [3:51] Motherhood and Modern Challenges [4:31] Perimenopause, Menopause, and Hormonal Shifts [6:00] Navigating New Areas of Motherhood Conclusion:This episode marks the beginning of a new chapter for Mother the Mother—a platform dedicated to fostering deep, meaningful conversations about the full spectrum of life, from birth to death.

    117 | Rebirth with Kenzie Burke

    In today’s episode, McLean is joined by Kenzie Burke as they dive into Kenzie's journey of awakening and rebirth. Based in Malibu, California, Kenzie Burke is the founder of BRÛLÉ; a clothing line whose namesake stems from its definitional association with fire. For founder and designer Kenzie Burke, fire is the impetus from which artistry springs forth. After gaining acclaim in the health and wellness space, Kenzie burnt it down to launch her lifelong passion: a clothing line focused on bringing lasting taste into fashion. BRÛLÉ is where life emerges from ashes. Kenzie previously managed a wellness social media account and created a podcast with more than 600,000 downloads. She also produced three health and wellness books and a superfood line of biodynamic coffee and cacao. However, in 2021, she disengaged from wellness and focused solely on fashion. McLean was inspired by Kenzie’s pivot and wanted to have her on the show to be an authentic example of how to support yourself through massive change. Kenzie shares how and why she had to drop everything and what it felt like to deeply surrender in order to get back up and rebuild herself again.
