Why This Podcast?
Why Now?
Cara's journey as a mom started about a year before Shawna's. At 40 she welcomed her beautiful daughter.
When Shawna became a mom at 42, she was blindsided by just how disorienting motherhood could be and reached out to her cousin and the girl she spent her childhood with to ask...
"what the *profanity* is happening to me?"
Cara’s journey mirrored the same truth: even when you’re thrilled to be a mom, it’s easy to feel like you’ve disappeared in the process.
They realized:
If they were feeling like this, other moms must be too.
So they teamed up to create a space that doesn’t dish out advice or hustle-fueled “fixes.”
Instead, they’re pulling back the curtain and having honest conversations about the identity shift no one warned us about—and the practice of finding your way back to yourself.
🎙️Topics We'll Cover:
In this podcast, we tackle topics like:
- Momposter Syndrome – and how to shut it down
- Rediscovering your identity after baby
- Building confidence without comparison
- Small wins & soul-deep shifts
- Mothering yourself while you mother them
Each episode is a blend of conversational reflections and interviews with inspiring guests who bring wisdom, relatability, and actionable insights.
💛Mom Enough Manifesto
This is a movement for the multidimensional mother.
You're part of the generation of moms who are choosing wholeness.
Not perfection.
Not performance.
Not pretending.
You don’t want to lose yourself to motherhood.
You're not looking to escape it either.
You're done with the guilt.
Done with the pressure to be “everything” for everyone.
Done with the narrative that your worth disappears the moment your children arrive.
We're with you.
We believe motherhood is not the end of who we are— it’s an invitation to become more.
More alive.
More grounded.
More in tune with our bodies, our dreams, our joy, and our strength.
Move because it reminds you that you’re still here.
Grow because you’re worth the effort.
Rest because you deserve to.
Rise because your kids are watching.
They won’t grow up caring for themselves the way you care for them—
they’ll grow up caring for themselves the way they saw you caring for yourself.
You don’t need to prove anything.
You don’t need to earn your place.
✨You’re Mom Enough.✨
Exactly as you are—and wildly capable of becoming even more.
