Episode 58: Returning to Wholeness - Transitions, Expansion, and Trusting our Inner Wisdom

This Spring Season feels like stretching - something in us is ready to bloom...even if we can't name it yet. The days are getting longer, the school year is winding down, our kids are growing like weeds, and we are growing too. In this episode, we explore expansion, embodiment, and returning to wholeness in motherhood. Together, we reflect on what it means to soften, reconnect to our inner wisdom, and nourish our well-being in a world that constantly asks us to be and do more. This is an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and remember: we were never meant to carry it all alone.

Episode 57 - What Needs Watering? Navigating Growth, Motherhood & Self-Compassion

What Needs Watering? Navigating Growth, Motherhood & Self-Compassion is an honest conversation with ourselves about the season so many of us find ourselves in — growing, stretching, balancing a lot, feeling grateful for what’s unfolding, while also trying to create rhythms that are sustainable. After realizing I forgot to press record during a beautiful podcast conversation, I found myself moving through embarrassment, frustration, and then a deeper reflection on how easy it is to keep pouring into everything and everyone around us without slowing down to ask: What needs watering right now? What needs pruning? Together, we explore motherhood, growth, self-compassion, and the pressure many of us feel to hold it all together. We talk about pruning what no longer feels aligned, asking for help, creating gentler rhythms, and learning that growth doesn’t always have to look perfect to be meaningful. This episode is a reminder that we can continue growing, dreaming, building, and showing up for the people we love, without abandoning ourselves in the process.

Episode 56: How Human of Us - Finding Wisdom Beneath the Noise

What does it mean to care for our whole being? In this personal episode of Whole Mom, I reflect on completing my trauma-conscious certification and the lessons it brought into my motherhood, healing, and everyday life. We explore: * Whole-being well-being * Nervous system care * Grace and self-compassion * Healing in community * Processing life as it is instead of how we think it should be * Why “it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it.” This conversation is an invitation to loosen the weight of the world, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and remember that your whole being and well-being matters.

Episode 55: It’s Our Time - Self-Trust and Leading From Within with Stacy Crawford

What if the wisdom we’re searching for is already within us? In this episode of Whole Mom, we're joined by Stacy Crawford, a passionate Mom, Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, an International Coaching Federation (PCC-level) Coach, faculty member and mentor coach at the Awaken Coach Institute, Leader, and founder of Klear Water Coaching & Wellness, to explore what it looks like to trust our inner knowing and lead from within. We discuss pivoting toward what lights us up, navigating life’s challenges, and the power of a mind-body approach to healing and growth. Stacy shares her journey through motherhood, leadership, and post-traumatic growth, and the moment that gave her permission to choose herself: “You’ve given so much to us, Mom… now it’s your time.” This conversation is an invitation to listen to our bodies, trust the signals we're receiving, and remember true self-care is essential. ✨ What is lighting YOU up right now?

Episode 54: When We Know… But Still Feel Disconnected (Embodiment in Real Life as a Mom), Part 2

We’ve done the breathwork. We’ve tried slowing down. And still… we find ourselves overwhelmed, reacting, or checked out in the middle of motherhood. In this episode, we go deeper into embodiment. (If you haven't already, here is an invitation to listen to episode 53 on exploring what is embodiment.) We explore why disconnection isn’t failure, it’s protection. How our nervous system supports us through overwhelm, and why “just being present” isn’t always accessible. Through a trauma-informed lens, we gently shift from forcing awareness… to creating safety within. From fixing, to allowing. This is about learning how to come back to ourselves in small, everyday moments, together.
