What are your children really learning from you… not from what you say, but from how you live?

In this powerful and honest conversation, I sit down with Kamia Hayes, wife, mother of six, and founder of Capacity Liberation Group™, to unpack a truth many women avoid… you cannot teach self-love if you are constantly abandoning yourself.

Kamia doesn’t just talk about motherhood, she lived the exhaustion of pouring into everyone else while running on empty. And one day, she saw it clearly… her children were watching her neglect herself in real time. That moment became her turning point.

Because let’s be real…
 Your kids don’t learn self-worth from your words.
 They learn it from your boundaries.
 From your standards.
 From what you tolerate.
 From how you treat yourself when life gets hard.

In this episode, we talk about what it really means to model self-love in front of your children, even when it feels uncomfortable, even when it requires change. We dive into:

• The silent lessons children absorb from self-sacrificing mothers
 • Why “doing it all” is not the badge of honor we think it is
 • How to start choosing yourself without guilt
 • The connection between your identity and your parenting
 • What it looks like to break generational cycles in real time

This is not about perfection. This is about awareness, ownership, and making a different choice… not just for you, but for the little eyes watching you.

Kamia’s message is simple but life-changing…
 The greatest gift you can give your children is a mother who knows who she is.
