Mommy life is Hard

🎙️ Podcast Summary: "Erica’s Fight: Between Lessons and Letdowns" In this raw and cinematic podcast series, we follow the powerful journey of Erica—a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, wife, and mother of four—battling life on the home front with a strength forged in service. With one child facing epilepsy and another living with autism, Erica balances homeschooling, entrepreneurship, and caregiving—all without the support of family or friends. Haunted by PTSD and wrapped in layers of emotional isolation, Erica shares what it’s like to fight silent wars most will never see. Though she’s considered middle class, her life is anything but easy. Each episode peels back the curtain on the daily chaos, quiet breakdowns, and hidden victories of a woman doing everything—alone. Through pain, purpose, and persistence, she offers her truth for every parent, veteran, and silent struggler out there. ✨ Unseen. Undone. Unyielding. This is Erica’s Fight—because survival doesn't always look like strength, but it always takes it.
