Wow! Alexandra, such a multitude of universes you’ve shared in these words! I am in awe of just how much matrescence can unpeel layers of yourself and grow new ones in return. You deserve for every part of you to be seen, witnessed and honoured and all the foot rubs in the world 😄🔥✨

this was so tender Alexandra and I found myself relating to that dialectic of grieving independence, stimulation, and pleasure alongside the sweet surrender to motherhood and all of its loving moments. thank you 🩷

Sitting on the toilet while I have a moment to myself while my babe still sleeps and the tears are streaming down my face while reading this. I have been so lonely yet so full of love and thank you so much for making me feel seen and talking about how both can exist at the same time and to allow loneliness as an invitation for connection. Really really touched by this one. I really needed it. Big big love to you❤️
