Episode 39: Resilence - The Community You Need
This month on A Soulful Mom’s Wisdom podcast, we’re focusing on the theme of resilience.
In this episode, I’m diving into the power of community—how the people around us shape our mental wellness and support us through motherhood’s ups and downs. Whether it’s the friends we choose or the communities we find ourselves in, each connection plays a vital role in how we navigate life’s transitions.
I’ll share my personal experience of building and maintaining community, the challenges of forming deep connections as a mom, and how the right people can empower your wellness journey.
Let me be clear—finding your community isn’t always easy. Life changes, people move, and busy schedules can make it hard to maintain meaningful relationships. But when you find a supportive, non-judgmental space, it becomes a source of strength and clarity.
