Set against a backdrop of textured lullaby-inspired sound design, each short episode (approx 5 min) is a deep dive into a first-hand account of the overwhelming love, change, and challenges experienced by women in the days following childbirth.

The power of song is explored as a timeless and universal tool for establishing and celebrating the maternal bond, as different women from diverse cultures each give a unique testimony about their personal experience of caring for their young.
