About this listen

 Chelsey Scaffidi is a mother of two, meditation teacher, social impact lawyer, and author of The Mother Year. During her pregnancy, she prepared for her baby’s birth, not realizing how motherhood would reshape her. In her first year as a mother, Chelsey recorded daily voice notes capturing the raw, real-time journey of transformation. Listening back, she realized how much she would say to that version of herself—tired, tender, and navigating the messy beauty of becoming a mother. The Mother Year is born from those voice notes, offering a guiding light for mothers in matrescence to navigate their unfolding with mindfulness, self-compassion, and connection. Chelsey leads in-person circles and events, advocating for matrescence awareness and empowering mothers to embrace both the challenges and the grace of motherhood. It is a 365-day guiding light for new mothers navigating the early stages of motherhood. Each entry features a simple yet powerful structure: a daily theme, a prayer, and a small sip of self-care that integrates easily into daily life.
