38. A Mom and Entrepreneur’s Story of Mental Health, Healing, and Growth

Please share your thoughts about how you felt about the episode and/or podcast!

In this heartfelt and honest episode, I sit down with a courageous mother, wife, podcast host, and entrepreneur who opens up about her ongoing journey with chronic anxiety, depression, and deep emotional healing. Through her inner work, therapy, and self-discovery, she’s uncovered powerful connections between her childhood trauma and present-day triggers — and is learning to meet herself with compassion, awareness, and new coping tools.

She shares what it’s really like to live with mental health challenges while building a business and raising a family, and what led her to let go of a business that no longer aligned so she could follow a more soul-led path. Now, through her own podcast, she’s on a mission to debunk mental health myths, normalize the healing process, and speak the truth about what daily mental health work really looks and feels like.

If you’ve ever felt alone in your anxiety or misunderstood in your healing journey — this episode is for you. Together, we’re breaking the silence, busting the stigma, and reminding each other that healing is not only possible, but deeply courageous.
