Description
No matter how it happens, motherhood changes you forever. Me After You is the show that asks the question: So, what now?  Each episode, host Laura Byrne guides some very different women through their very different stories of life after birth. In this first episode, we’re talking Identity, and you’ll hear from women like Alex Nation, who got pregnant at 18 and wrestled with being a kid with a baby, Narelda Jacobs, who had a shotgun wedding before coming out as gay to her very conservative family and a blogging mum with a huge following who never thought she wanted to become a mother.  And all of them have struggled with the same thing - who the hell am I, now that I’m a mum?
