More Than Mom With Dr. Nichelle Haynes
Motherhood changes everything — but it doesn’t erase you.
Hosted by perinatal psychiatrist and mom Dr. Nichelle Haynes, More Than Mom is a podcast for women in the thick of it all — navigating identity, mental health, and the quiet, powerful work of finding yourself in motherhood.
Each episode offers real but gentle conversations about the transformation no one prepares you for. From the science of matrescence to the grief of lost selves to the slow, hopeful process of becoming someone new, this is a space to reflect, reconnect, and rebuild your sense of self with compassion.
Whether you’re overwhelmed, unseen, or simply craving a moment of reflection, More Than Mom is here to help you feel more grounded, more understood — and more like yourself again.
More Than Mom With Dr. Nichelle Haynes
Welcome to More Than Mom with Dr. Nichelle Haynes
Dr. Nichelle Haynes is a perinatal psychiatrist, mother, and advocate for honest conversations about the mental and emotional transformation of motherhood. After years of supporting patients through the identity shifts that come with becoming a parent — and walking through her own — she created More Than Mom with Dr. Nichelle Haynes, a podcast for women ready to reconnect with themselves in and beyond motherhood.
Because the journey into motherhood isn’t just about feeding schedules and milestones. It’s about grief, identity, change, and the quiet, powerful work of becoming someone new.
With warmth, clinical insight, and deep compassion, Nichelle guides listeners through topics like matrescence, the invisible load, self-care, perfectionism, and rediscovering who you are — not just as a mother, but as a whole person.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re unraveling and becoming all at once, this podcast is for you. Motherhood isn’t the end of your story — it’s the beginning of a deeper one.
