In this kickoff episode of Women Talk Fierce, hosts Keira, Nikki, and Tammy bring their full selves to the mic; three women in three very different stages of motherhood and entrepreneurship. From toddler tantrums to college applications, from volunteer burnout to protective mama bear moments (yes, there are some drive-to-the-house stories!), this episode is a heartfelt rollercoaster of laughs, lived experience, and loud opinions.
This week’s topic? What keeps us up at night. Spoiler alert: It’s not just the kids. Tune in as we navigate safety fears, shifting definitions of “good moms,” the trap of Pinterest perfection, and the deep work of raising emotionally secure humans in a very different world than we grew up in.
What You’ll Hear:
The myth of the perfect mom across three generations
Real talk on curfews, college prep, drinking, and digital safety
That moment when you realize showing up doesn’t mean saying yes to everything
Mom guilt, growth, and the power of open communication
Fireside question: If money were no object, what would you do with your kids today?
Notable Quotes:
“They’re not trying to test you, they’re trying to be seen.”
“Motherhood isn’t one-size-fits-all. Every kid, every season, every mom is different.”
“We’re not just raising kids, we’re raising future adults. That’s the job.”
