123 Momsquad: Secrets for Thriving with Chronic Illness
TURNING A PAGE FROM ILLNESS TO WELLNESS. As a daughter, sister, wife, author, mentor, and mother to two amazing teens, I've faced over 20 years of battling various illnesses and chronic pain. The persistent health issues, combined with the demands of motherhood, led me to a place of feeling lost and overwhelmed. Through a journey of self-discovery and healing, exploring the depths of my inner spirit to address both mental and physical traumas, I found ways to cope. This podcast is my way of reaching out to and supporting women who share similar struggles. Come alongside me in this new chapter as I pursue my passion for helping others on their journey to wellness.
