Description

Ever wonder how other moms juggle work, family, and self-care without losing their sanity? Do they have a secret superpower, or is there a supportive community backing them? If you are a mother, know a mother, or planning to be one, this is a must-listen.

 

This episode is all about the village, and how crucial it is for the well-being of both children and mothers. The reality is that being a mom isn't easy, especially without a support system in place. We touch on maintaining a sense of identity amidst the demands of motherhood, finding ways to cover expenses, and the sacrifices made by mothers who lack a village. But it's not all about struggles; we're also sharing advice on generating additional income and how to stay positive in the face of adversity. 

 

In the second half of our episode, we're switching gears to discuss the challenges of parenting as our children grow up and move out, and how our own upbringing influences our approach to parenting. We also address a listener's concern about a friend's relationship and offer guidance on setting boundaries while providing support. Wrapping up, we discuss the often-overlooked topic of financial literacy, the importance of creating a safe space for friends to share their experiences, and our guest Carla's moving journey. So sit back, tune in, and join us on this emotional and enlightening ride.
