I Survived…But I’m Not the Same Person Anymore
Surviving something life-changing doesn’t mean you magically become okay afterward. Sometimes you survive and still have to grieve the person you used to be.
This episode of The Torch Mom Podcast is a raw and powerful conversation about motherhood, identity, burnout, survival, healing, and learning how to exist after life changes you forever.
Tia sits down with Amanda, a breast cancer survivor, mother of three, speaker, and podcast host who opens up about navigating motherhood during COVID while battling cancer, and the emotional reality of surviving something that permanently changes you.
From balancing treatment and parenting to rebuilding her identity after remission, Amanda shares the truth many women quietly carry but rarely say out loud.
In this episode:
- surviving cancer while still showing up as a mom
- grieving the version of yourself that no longer exists
- mom guilt during hard seasons
- burnout, people-pleasing, and learning to say no
- why women struggle to admit they’re not okay
- rebuilding identity after trauma and survival
- giving yourself grace during seasons of change
- learning to become intentional with your life
