Motherhood changes far more than your daily routine—it transforms your identity. In this solo Q&A, Lindsey answers your questions about parenting, relationships, personal growth, and the unexpected lessons she’s learning while preparing to welcome baby number two.
She opens up about why she chooses not to share her children’s faces online and the complicated emotions that can arise when one partner becomes the primary breadwinner. Lindsey also reflects on approaching her 40s, embracing change, and learning to loosen her grip on perfection.
Whether you’re a parent, preparing for motherhood, or simply navigating a season of transition, this conversation offers honest reflections on identity, relationships, boundaries, and trusting yourself through life’s biggest changes.
We also talk about:
- Why Lindsey keeps her children’s faces off social media
- Parenting, privacy, and protecting your family’s digital footprint
- What dreams about an ex may actually be telling you
- Reframing the value of caregiving + motherhood
- Thoughts on aging, turning 40, and having children later in life
- Why control becomes harder—and surrender becomes more important
- Learning to trust yourself through every new season of life
- The identity shifts that come with growing your family
