Mama's Still Here!

🎙️ Mama’s Still Here

with Bonita Payton

They don’t visit. They don’t call. And when they do, it’s short.But Mama’s still here — praying, waiting, surviving... in silence.

Hosted by Bonita Payton, author of She Rises and host of Unbreakable, Unapologetic, and Unstoppable, Mama’s Still Here is a raw, unfiltered, and necessary podcast that gives voice to the invisible heartbreak of mothers—especially black mothers — who feel forgotten, dismissed, or emotionally abandoned by the very children they raised.

This podcast says what so many women keep locked inside:

• The pain of being overlooked

• The sting of silence during the holidays

• The quiet desperation of walking into doctor’s offices alone

• The question nobody wants to ask: What happens when the kids stop coming back?

This is not a pity party — it’s a call for presence, healing, and truth.

If you’re a mother carrying unspoken grief... or a son or daughter ready to break a generational cycle — this space is for you.

Because Mama is still here.And she deserves more than flowers once a year.
