The Silent Mother Project with Sam Richardson
Motherhood isn’t quiet, but the world always told us to be.
Welcome to The Silent Mother Project with Sam Richardson, a storytelling podcast for the moms who’ve carried entire worlds on their backs and were still told to “be grateful” and “stay strong.” Sam became a mom at 18, lost her first daughter to congenital heart disease, survived trauma she never asked for, and built a life rooted in healing, advocacy, and speaking out loudly.
This is her diary in podcast form: honest, messy, funny, painful, and empowering. Here we talk identity after motherhood, raising kids with trauma, the grief you don’t post about, the online chaos, the content creator life, and what it means to keep going when life keeps throwing plot twists.
If you’ve ever felt voiceless, invisible, or like you’re drowning while holding everyone else up, this is your space.

Breaking Free from Shame & Living Authentically with Mo Gandhi
Shame. It’s something so many of us carry—whether it comes from religion, societal expectations, or just the fear of not being "good enough." But what if we could let it go?
In this episode, I sit down with Mohammed Gandhi, co-founder of Lil Helper, for a raw and honest conversation about breaking free from shame, raising good humans without fear-based morality, and navigating authenticity in a world that constantly tries to define us.
We dive into:
🔹 The impact of societal and religious expectations on shame
🔹 Parenting with kindness instead of guilt
🔹 The pressures of being in the public eye and staying true to yourself
🔹 What it really means to be a ‘good person’ without relying on religion
🔹 Letting go of perfection and embracing who we are
This is one of those conversations that will leave you feeling lighter, more seen, and maybe even a little more empowered to live life on your terms.
