The Uncanny Lens

Death of The Selfless Mother: Nightbitch (2024), Loss & Manifesting a New Self

VentralVerse Media Season 2 Episode 10

What happens when the “good mother” narrative dies? In this episode of The Uncanny Lens, Minx is back and we sink our teeth into the themes of loss, transformation, and self-concept shifts through the lens of the 2024 movie Nightbitch. We explore how motherhood can feel like a death—of identity, autonomy, and self—while also opening a portal for rebirth, reclamation, and manifestation.

We break down self-concept shifts after major identity shifts (from motherhood, illness, disability,  or any life-altering experience). Plus, we dive into archetypes, the myth of the selfless mother, and how embracing your inner Nighbitch can be the key to unlocking your highest self.

If you’ve ever felt lost in your own life, stuck in a role that no longer fits, or unsure how to reclaim your wildness—this one’s for you.

In each episode we uncover the delicate interplay between the media, pop culture icons we adore, and the very fabric of our personal identities. Follow us on social media and rate, share, and subscribe!
