S2 E1 | Lee's Story
Happy Mother's Day!
We're BACK! After a VERY long hiatus, Mom with Issues is back for Season 2. This season it's not just me. Join me and my friends as we discuss all of our issues. These incredible women will share their stories, pitfalls and triumphs. We'll cover everything from Domestic Violence, mental health, chronic illness, recovery and so much more.
On this episode, join me and my friend Lee as she tells her story of escaping domestic abuse. When her husband tried to take her life, Lee fought for herself and her son. She's 6 months free and here to tell the tale.
You can follow Lee, her journey and all of her amazing advocacy work over on Tiktok at @transcendingtrauma

In the US you can get help at the domestic violence hotline: 800-799-7233. They have a chat option available via google if you’re not in a safe space to talk.
Statistics for domestic violence and strangulation can be found at https://ncadv.org/STATISTICS
If you find yourself dealing with a narcissist I recommend the book “Gaslighting: Recognize Manipulative and Emotionally Abusive People -- and Break Free” by Dr. Stephanie Moulton Sarkis. -
Episode 5 | No Mom Friends
This episode is dedicated to the weird moms.
To moms with hobbies of their own, to the moms that would rather donate money than time to the PTA.
So for the moms who love their kids, and would do anything in the world for them but know you don’t have to make them your ENTIRE world, let’s go. This episode is for you.

Episode 3 | All Hallows Eve
Happy Halloween!
Put the kids to bed, grab some wine and the candy bowl, turn off the lights and settle in for a mini episode featuring 6 fun-sized creepy pastas. -
Episode 2 | Migraines
Today’s episode is brought to you by Migraines. No, it’s not just a headache. No, I’m not “just dehydrated”. Yes, I took something for it. If those phrases sound familiar, then this is the episode for you.
A migraine is more than a headache. For me, it can be a debilitating pain. And this dusty broad doesn’t travel alone. She comes with aura, dizziness, slurred speech, and sensitivity to light and sound.
If you've ever experienced a migraine, this ones for you.
