Episode 69: From Two Wheels to Three | Navigating Motherhood with Hayley Wight
Motorcycles and motherhood might not seem like they have much in common at first glance, but both journeys are filled with adventure, challenges, and the thrill of the ride. In today's episode, we're diving into the unique experience of motherhood through the lens of one remarkable Moto Mum, Hayley.
Just like riding with a sidecar adds a whole new dimension to the motorcycle experience, becoming a mother fundamentally changes the course of a woman's life. The pressures and expectations society places on women when it comes to motherhood have evolved over the years, but they still exist. Portrayals of this epic journey in the media often lack the raw honesty that women need to relate to.
Hayley, a seasoned Triumph rider, temporarily parked her motorcycle to focus on raising her beloved one-year-old son. This identity shift from a solo rider to a mother is a profound one. It's a journey filled with highs, lows, and everything in between.
On today's episode, we'll explore the emotional landscape of this transformation. We'll delve into the joys and challenges of motherhood, the importance of opening up about these experiences, and the profound impact it has on women's lives.
