More than Mom: The Podcast

Why Chasing Your Dreams Doesn’t Make You a Bad Mom

Motherhood changes you — but it shouldn’t erase you. In this episode, Cameo opens up about the guilt so many moms feel when they try to grow, pursue a passion, or step into a dream that lights them up. She shares her own journey of going back to school, returning to pageantry, and rediscovering who she is outside of “mom,” and why wanting more for yourself doesn’t make you selfish — it makes you whole. This is your reminder that your kids benefit from watching you chase your dreams, not hide from them. You’re allowed to evolve. You’re allowed to shine. And none of that makes you a bad mom — it makes you More Than Mom.

Episode 1. The Journey Back to Myself

In this first episode of More Than Mom, Cameo Sweeney shares the real story behind her journey — from a small-town girl who loved the stage, to navigating blended family life, fertility challenges, identity loss, and rediscovering herself through pageants. This episode is honest, vulnerable, and full of heart. If you’ve ever loved your family deeply but still struggled to hold onto pieces of yourself, this is for you. Welcome to More Than Mom — where real women, real stories, and real growth are always at the center.
