Hey Guys! If you don't already know me from my Youtube channel EMBERS&ASH, my name is Ashley and I'm pregnant with my second child. I created this podcast to be a space where I can unload all things pregnancy. I'll be taking you week by week, giving you all the gritty details of what pregnancy can look like. My hope is that this can be a resource to help mothers who are hoping to get pregnant or are pregnant and want someone to relate with. I hope you enjoy!
The Mother In The Making podcast is an absolute gem for anyone interested in pregnancy and parenting. Hosted by Ashley, who also runs a popular YouTube channel and Instagram account, this podcast offers a refreshing and honest perspective on these topics. As someone eagerly waiting to start trying for a baby in a couple of years, I have found immense value in Ashley's advice and insights.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the relatability factor. Ashley's authenticity shines through in every episode, making it easy to connect with her experiences and emotions. She shares her fears, struggles, and joys without any filters, creating a space where listeners can feel understood and validated. It's comforting to know that others go through similar challenges and that you're not alone in your journey towards parenthood.
Another great aspect of The Mother In The Making podcast is the transparency it offers. It can be challenging to find media that provides an honest portrayal of pregnancy and parenting, but Ashley breaks through those barriers by offering full transparency. She doesn't shy away from discussing difficult topics or sharing the less glamorous side of motherhood. This level of openness creates an authentic and genuine listening experience that is truly refreshing.
While there might not be many negative aspects to this podcast, one thing to note is that it focuses primarily on Ashley's personal experiences. While this can be relatable for many listeners, some might prefer a more diverse range of perspectives or expert interviews on certain topics. However, considering that this podcast centers around Ashley's own pregnancy journey, it's understandable why the content revolves around her own experiences.
In conclusion, The Mother In The Making podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in pregnancy and parenting. With its relatability, transparency, and honest discussions, it provides an invaluable resource for those navigating their way through parenthood or preparing for it in the future. Ashley's vulnerability shines through in each episode, making listeners feel like they have a friend going through the journey of parenting with them. I highly recommend this podcast and can't wait to follow Ashley's pregnancy journey and beyond.
