Seen Again is a modern companion through matrescence, the profound transition of becoming a mother.
Seen Again is a modern companion through matrescence, the profound transition of becoming a mother.
Matrescence is a biological, psychological, emotional, social and spiritual transformation that can leave mothers without the language or support to make sense of who they are.
Many feel disconnected or invisible, wondering:
Who am I now? Is it normal to feel this way?
Blending intimate memoir, eighteen real-life stories and years of coaching into a compassionate framework, Benita Bensch explores the inner landscape and seismic shift of matrescence with unflinching honesty. If you have ever felt lost, remember: you are not broken, you are evolving.
This is an invitation to reimagine your next season of life, free of shoulds.
Seen Again: Light on Matrescence is a return to the inner campfire, where the dark is honoured, the light is reclaimed, and your true self is waiting to be seen again.
By you, first.
