Make America Happy Again
Motherhood is messy. Life is unpredictable. And in a world that feels more divided and overwhelming than ever, we need real conversations, practical solutions, and a whole lot more joy.
Welcome to Make America Happy Again—a podcast for moms who want to break free from stress, burnout, and generational cycles to build a life of health, purpose, and peace.
I’m Wendy—wife, mom of two, business owner, and recovering perfectionist who knows firsthand how easy it is to get lost in the chaos of daily life. But I also know that transformation is possible—when we focus on what truly matters and take small, intentional steps forward.
This is not another podcast that will tell you to hustle harder, do more, or be perfect. Instead, we’re keeping it real, raw, and radically simple. Each week, we’ll dive into topics like:
✔️ Breaking generational cycles and creating a better future for your family
✔️ Health & wellness for busy moms—without the all-or-nothing mindset
✔️ Faith, mindset, and personal growth—so you can show up as your best self
✔️ Simplifying the everyday—meal planning, routines, and making life easier
✔️ Overcoming mom guilt, fear, and self-doubt—because you are not alone
No fluff. No political affiliation. Just real conversations, practical tools, and a whole lot of encouragement.
So if you're ready to take back your peace, prioritize what matters most, and step into the healthiest, happiest version of yourself—you’re in the right place.
Hit play, and let’s do this together. 💛

My Story Part 2: The Rock Bottom That Changed Everything
In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the next chapter of my journey—when I thought I had it all together but was actually falling apart. After years of battling addiction, loss, and the lingering emptiness I couldn’t seem to escape, I turned to bodybuilding, thinking a perfect physique could solve my problems. Spoiler alert: it didn’t.
From winning my pro card to standing on stage and hearing a voice in my head call me a phony, this episode is about the painful truth behind the picture-perfect exterior and how that moment set me on the path toward real change. It’s raw, real, and a story of redemption in progress.
We’ll also talk about:
- The God-shaped hole that nothing in this world could fill.
- The harsh reality of having a “mind full of recovery and a belly full of booze.”
- Why rock bottom isn’t the end—it’s the foundation for a new beginning.
This is Part 2 of a 3-part series, so stick with me as we journey through the mess, the lessons, and the moment I finally broke free. Next week, we’ll pick up where I finally get sober and the real transformation begins.
Key Takeaways from This Episode:
- Why external success can’t heal internal wounds.
- How hitting rock bottom can actually be the turning point toward breakthrough.
- The importance of addressing the root causes of addiction, not just the symptoms.
