Mothering Without a Village -10 Culturally Sensitive Strategies for Migrant Mums Raising Kids in a New Country

Raising children far from your own family, culture, and community?

 Feeling like you're doing it all without the support you thought would be there? This episode is for you.

In this heartfelt and powerful episode of Parent-Teen Bond SIMPLIFIED, Enda Gilbert speaks directly to migrant mums like you — the ones raising kids in a land that doesn't hold your memories, where the "village" you once imagined feels out of reach.

Whether you arrived recently or decades ago, whether your child is still in diapers or nearly grown, this conversation will resonate with you.

Because Enda sees you.

 She understands the silent strength it takes to mother in a language that's not your own.

 She knows the emotional weight of parenting across cultures, the ache of doing it alone, and the quiet grief of trying to stay connected to your child in a world that sometimes feels foreign.

She understands-because she's lived it.

💬 In this episode, you'll hear:

🔹 The emotional toll of mothering in a migrating land — and the unspoken grief that can come with it

 🔹 What it means to parent between two cultures, and how that shapes you and your child

 🔹 How language can become a barrier between hearts — and how to gently rebuild trust

 🔹 Why you might feel alone, even in a crowded place

 🔹 How mainstream support spaces often miss the mark for mums like you

 🔹 The beauty and strength of reclaiming your culture at home

 🔹 10 soul-nourishing strategies to help you stay connected, grounded, and confident — even when the village is missing

If your heart is nodding "yes" while you listen, Enda has something just for you.
