Mom: In-Process
LISTEN UP MAMA! This is a TOUGH-LOVE voice of reality and reason for stay-at-home moms (SAHM's) who want to improve their lives! In this podcast, I'll say the things you NEED to hear, not what you want. This is for the mamas who want to live a fulfilled life, find value in their role, and understand their worth as a full-time mother. I want you to be the BEST version of yourself, to best raise the future generation. I bring you quality conversations focused on practical and approachable tips, tools, and resources that will help you in your role at home. I bring you two episodes each week, with conversations from myself as well as guests who take conversations deeper with their personal experiences, expert knowledge, and everyday approaches. Mom: In-Process is an understanding of the fluidity of motherhood. We are always changing, always growing.
