Brilliant Motherhood & Brain Wellness with Raeanne Johnson

Seeing Motherhood Clearly with Dr. Pam Theriot

Dr. Pam Theriot is a wife and mother first and foremost, but also an optometrist, author, and dry eye specialist based in Louisiana. With over 20 years of experience in eye care, she leads the Dry Eye Relief Center at Lusk Eye Specialists, where she helps patients find personalized, long-term solutions to chronic eye irritation. We talked about how she admittedly is working to convince her daughters to follow in her footsteps, why eye care means so much to her personally, how being an optometrist shapes her motherhood journey, and so much more.

From New Age to New Life with Doreen Virtue

One of the most unique episodes of the podcast to date where I visit with Doreen Virtue. Once, she was the top authority and influencer in all things New Age, now she has serving Jesus as her top priority in life. Listening to her story was fascinating and hearing how she reflects on her motherhood journey really tugged at my heart strings. If you're curious about things like vision boards, yoga, or how one becomes involved in New Age at all - this episode will hit on all of those topics and then some!
