Back of tee design reads

MATRESCENCE

mat-res-cence / noun

The process of becoming a mother.

A profound physical, emotional, hormonal, psychological and social transformation that begins with motherhood and continues as a woman grows into her new identity.

A shift in who you are, how you see yourself, your relationships, your body, your priorities and your place in the world.

It can hold love and loss.

Joy and overwhelm.

Connection and loneliness.

Strength and vulnerability.

Confidence and uncertainty.

The woman you were and the mother you are becoming.

Your body changes.

Your mind changes.

Your relationships change.

Your priorities change.

Your entire world changes.

And somewhere amongst caring for everyone else, you are learning how to exist in this new version of yourself.

You didn’t just have a baby.

You became someone new.

Motherhood.

Nothing will ask more of you.

Nothing will change you more.

Nothing will mean more.
