Episode notes

In this episode of Season of Becoming, I sit down with a woman who is actively stepping into motherhood — not just in title, but in identity.

We talk about what it really means to become a mother while still choosing yourself.

She opens up about: • Learning to advocate for herself — in relationships, in family dynamics, and for her daughter

• Navigating the transition into becoming a stepmom

• The emotional responsibility that comes with protecting and leading your child

• Why putting yourself first isn’t selfish — it’s necessary

This conversation is for the busy mom who feels pulled in every direction.

It’s for the woman who is learning that advocating for herself teaches her daughter how to advocate for herself too.

It’s about redefining motherhood — not as self-abandonment, but as embodied leader ...
