Motherhood & Friendship: Building Authentic Community When Life Gets Overwhelming with Stephanie May Wilson


Listen Later

Motherhood changes everything — your routines, your energy, and especially your friendships.

As life gets busier and capacity feels smaller, many moms wonder: how do I stay connected when I barely have time for myself?

In this heartfelt and practical episode, Greer sits down with Stephanie May Wilson — author, speaker, and trusted friendship mentor — to talk about how friendships evolve during motherhood and why authentic community matters now more than ever.

A mom of twin girls, Stephanie shares her real-life experiences of navigating the early, overwhelming days of motherhood, offering honest encouragement and simple, doable ways to nurture connection even when life feels full.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why friendship is essential for moms’ mental and emotional health

  • How to stay connected when energy and time are limited

  • Creative ways to blend motherhood and friendship

  • Why “small moments” can sustain meaningful relationships

  • How modelling healthy friendships benefits your children

    This episode is for every mom craving connection and reassurance that you’re not alone — real community is still possible, even in the busiest season of motherhood.
