What if your postpartum body could heal in ways you didn’t think were possible—even years after giving birth? In this episode, Shannon dives into an eye-opening conversation with Lynn Schulte, a pelvic health physical therapist with over 30 years of experience specializing in postpartum care. Lynn explains how unresolved trauma from childbirth and misaligned pelvic bones can lead to lingering pain and discomfort—but she also shares how pelvic floor therapy can provide profound relief and transformation.

Here are Multiple Ways to Support Western North Carolina in the Aftermath of Hurricane Helene
The list will be updated as Shannon learns more about the needs of the local community. Thank you for your support.

In this episode of Having a Mom Moment, Shannon sits down with Stephanie Patton Jones, an inspiring artist, military spouse, and mom who took the leap from a corporate career to following her passion for painting. Stephanie shares her journey of self-discovery through the challenges of solo parenting during her husband’s deployment, balancing her art business with motherhood, and building a supportive community of fellow military spouses. With an unwavering belief in pursuing passions, she offers advice on embracing creativity, seeking help, and showing our kids that we can do what we love. Join us as Stephanie reminds us of the beauty in following your calling—even when it means redefining your path as a mom.

About Stephanie:
"After years of working in corporate America I was burnt out and grumpy. My husband was deployed, and I needed an outlet that could help me release the stress of solo parenting while he was gone - so I picked up my brushes again.

After not having painted in over four years paintings just kept pouring out of me. I quickly realized this was something I finally needed to pursue full time. Little me would be so happy to know I finally followed my dream of being a full-time working artist. 

You'll often find me in my home studio with my three critters (Sweet Pea our little black kitty, Roxy the Doxy and Teeny my toddler). 

If you are interested in adding a touch of nature's beauty to your home or office, I invite you to explore my collection of original paintings or prints. Each artwork is meticulously crafted with attention to detail and a commitment to quality. From serene marshes to majestic mountains, there is a piece that will resonate with your personal aesthetic."

In this episode, Shannon welcomes Christine Landis, founder of Peacock Parent, to discuss the transformative journey of prioritizing self-care and outsourcing "low-joy tasks" to enhance family life and personal well-being. Christine shares how a friend's advice led her to enlist help from a newborn care specialist and night nurse, paving the way for her concept of the Peacock Parent. She emphasizes the importance of outsourcing mundane tasks, like bath time, to focus on what truly brings joy. By running her home like a business, Christine highlights the value of investing in yourself. Together, they discuss creative solutions for families with limited resources and challenge societal norms that frown upon mothers taking time for themselves. Christine's message is clear: buying back your time is a vital investment in joy and presence, ultimately benefiting the whole family. Shannon shares her recent return to full-time work and how outsourcing lawn care has improved her family's dynamic. Tune in to explore practical tips and inspirational insights on reclaiming your time and energy.

About Christine:
When Christine Landis became a mom 5 years ago, she naturally leaned into the luxury of time in parenthood. As a former CEO, she was accustomed to striving for efficiency, delegating, and focusing on the bottom line. She decided to do the same in parenthood and make MORE JOY the ultimate “profit” and treat time as a currency. At Peacock Parent, she applies the “time is money” principle to parenthood so that busy executive parents can proudly buy more time to enjoy the good life they’ve worked so hard to build.
