I Think You Should Be Brave

Becoming Brave: My Journey Through Loss, Motherhood, and Self-Healing


Listen Later

Welcome to the very first episode of I Think You Should Be Brave, a podcast about healing, courage, and finding yourself again after loss, grief, and transformation.

In this first episode, Erin opens up about her own journey from becoming a mother at 21 and navigating poverty and shame, to building a multi-million-dollar business, surviving unimaginable loss, and learning what bravery truly means.

You’ll hear her honest story of resilience: the moments that nearly broke her, and the ones that helped her rebuild piece by piece into the woman she was always meant to be.

This episode is an invitation to remember that you are not too broken to begin again. Whether you’re walking through grief, healing trauma, or finding your way back to yourself, Erin’s story reminds you that what feels like the end can become your greatest new beginning.

Tune in to hear:

  • Her story of becoming a single mom at 21 and learning to survive through shame and scarcity
  • The moment that changed everything- losing her daughter, Opal, and nearly losing her own life
  • How trauma and PTSD shaped her journey as a woman, mother, and entrepreneur
  • Why success didn’t heal her and what true healing actually looked like
  • The moment she finally learned that bravery isn’t pretending you’re fine, it’s telling the truth
