In this episode, I share a powerful moment that completely shifted my perspective on motherhood. Just when I felt like I was failing, my son looked up at me and said he wanted to be like me. His words hit me hard and made me realize that, no matter how I see myself, he sees me—his mom, his role model. That moment lit a fire in me to become someone he can truly be proud of—not just a provider, but a mom who is healthy, happy, and actually enjoying life. Join me as I reflect on this wake-up call and how it’s shaping my journey toward self-care, joy, and intentional living as a solo parent.

After recording an episode about struggling to ask for help, life tested me. I found myself relying on multiple people, learning that vulnerability builds strength and connection in unexpected ways. I also met a version of myself 30 years older—a mirror of regret and missed opportunities. She was a warning, urging me to make changes before it’s too late to rewrite my story. Without knowing it, she changed my life.
