In this episode, Shari discusses her own difficult journey to pregnancy and motherhood for the first time publicly, which included years of infertility after being diagnosed with fibroids. Here, she talks about why this, what she's learned since becoming a mom, and demystifying stigmas around what motherhood looks like, set the the foundation for this podcast.
Ashley Zapata, LFMT and Shari discuss the absolute importance of putting your mental health first and what that looks like. They explore the realities of pospartum depression and anxiety and how to take realistic steps to overcome it. This episode focuses on how to re-discover who you are after having children and the power that is 100% yours to re-difine who you are.
Shari and her mentor of 10 years, Delilah Chapman (mother of three, entrepreneur and business owner, Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, and world traveler), have a deep conversation about real life lessons after having children, how motherhood changes you in the best ways, and creating the motherhood YOU want through the power of your perspective and intention.
A conversation between Shari and her sister, Dr. Shannon Pugh, that explores her challenging road to Doctorate while giving birth to and raising two children, reclaiming her life and power post-divorce, and the big part that faith has played in overcoming adversity, removing limits, and creating a fulfilling life and motherhood she is proud of.

This week on Mom Group Chat, we're diving into the motherhood discourse that's been lighting up the internet.From Chappell Roan's viral comments to Ellen Pompeo's reflections on the Call Her Daddy podcast, we unpack the very real tension surrounding how women talk about motherhood publicly. Why does it always feel like moms are coming for each other—or that we have to plant a flag in a certain “camp” of how we feel about motherhood?The truth is: motherhood is so many things at once. It's beautiful and brutal. Joyful and exhausting. It's a full range of emotions—often felt in a single day. On this podcast, we give ourselves (and you) permission to feel all of it. No shame, no labels, no performative takes—just real, raw conversations about what it means to be a mom today.We hope this episode reminds you that your experience is valid, and you don't owe the internet (or anyone) a perfectly packaged version of your motherhood story.Join the official Mom Group Chat Facebook group: MOM GROUP CHAT FACEBOOK GROUPKeep up with the Moms and join the conversation on our socials:

We would love to hear from you! Text us any feedback. Have you ever felt completely overwhelmed despite everything in your life looking "fine" on paper? This raw, unscripted episode emerged from my own struggles. Sitting in my bedroom with a makeshift recording setup, no makeup, and desperately needing a shower, I share honestly about my current season of diminished capacity. Menopause symptoms have left me crying unexpectedly, feeling overwhelmed by normal responsibilities, and questioning my ability to keep all the balls in the air. The irony? Much of what's overwhelming me consists of beautiful things—my children growing independent and pursuing their dreams, exactly as I've raised them to do.I explore how my default response to overwhelm is overconsumption—frantically seeking answers through endless podcasts, books, and expert advice. But this behavior only amplifies the noise instead of bringing peace. Drawing from a book about digital detoxing, I reflect on how we've become a culture that immediately turns to Google instead of sitting with our questions or seeking wisdom through prayer and stillness.The heart of this episode centers on the profound difference between happiness (which depends on circumstances) and joy (which transcends them). When we feel ourselves losing stability, it's often because we've allowed our joy to become dependent on external validation, perfect performance, or maintaining control. True joy—the kind the Bible refers to when it says "the joy of the Lord is my strength"—remains steady even when life feels chaotic.To the mothers feeling overwhelmed today: You are not alone. The work you do matters profoundly, even on days when you feel you're failing. We're all imperfect humans raising imperfect humans, but we do so under the guidance of a perfect parent who offers endless grace.Take a moment today to quiet the noise, open your Bible, and remember that what you're doing matters—even when you can barely keep your head above water.Reconnected: How 7 Screen-Free Weeks with Monks and Amish Farmers Helped Me Recover the Lost Art of Being Human by Carlos Whitaker:https://amzn.to/4lebDkPStory Behind the Hymn - It Is Well With My Soul:https://www.staugustine.com/story/lifestyle/faith/2014/10/17/story-behind-song-it-well-my-soul/985525007/JOIN ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Follow Along @ - https://www.instagram.com/nikkicronksmith/
