    Resilient Presence: The Power of One Small Step

    You cannot change the past. You cannot control other people. And you cannot know exactly what tomorrow will bring. But you can decide what you do today. In Season 4, Episode 27 of The Resilient Mother Podcast, Tiffany Lorraine Galloway welcomes Traci Kasper, founder of One Small Step Walks, for a conversation about Resilient Presence and the power of taking one small step. One Small Step Walks brings people together to get outside, move their bodies, find community, and overcome what can sometimes be the hardest part of change: Simply getting started. Tiffany and Traci explore why consistency is often confused with perfection—and why missing a day, getting knocked off course, or experiencing a difficult season does not mean you have failed. Resilience is learning how to come back. They also discuss movement and mental health, body image, creating sustainable habits, the importance of face-to-face community, and why our increasingly screen-centered lives make meaningful human connection even more valuable. Sometimes we become so focused on what happened yesterday—or what might happen tomorrow—that we miss the life happening directly in front of us. Resilient presence brings us back to one question: What is the next right thing I can do today? Maybe it is taking a walk. Getting outside. Calling someone. Asking for help. Returning to a habit. Or simply deciding to begin again. You do not have to fix everything today. Sometimes you just need to take one small step. In This Episode Consistency vs. perfection Why getting started can be the hardest step Using movement to support physical and mental health Building sustainable habits Giving yourself grace when you get off track How small wins build confidence Body image and appreciating what your body can do Why in-person community still matters Finding people who energize and support you Resilience after setbacks Living in the present instead of the past or future Focusing on what you can control today Taking the next right step Connect With Traci Kasper One Small Step Walks on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/onesmallstepwalks Traci is also developing the One Small Step Walks website.

    Resilient Miracles: From Paralyzed to the Oscars with Adassa

    She walked into the hospital during her callback. She was wheeled out paralyzed from the neck down. A second round of COVID took her voice. It took her strength. It took her ability to move at all. Before that, Adassa spent nearly 20 years in music. Four octaves. Songs with Pitbull, Flo Rida, Snoop Dogg, and Daddy Yankee. Writing credits at Warner, Universal, and SONY. Then she walked away from all of it to raise her family — and a YouTube video with about 300 views brought her back. None of that mattered in the moments she couldn't hold her own children or care for herself. As a devoted, loving mother who used to serve her family, it was her turn to be loved on. She found the miracle in unconditional love and eternal value as a Child of God. Adassa wrote about that season in her new memoir, Love, Keep Showing Up: Music, Messes and Miracles. Every chapter has a song that goes with it. Her husband produced the album in Nashville, where they live now. What she came back with is the whole reason I wanted her on this show: You are a beloved child of God no matter what you face. Your value does not change. Not when your body fails you. Not when you have nothing left to give anyone. Love from above was already there the whole time, and the hardest lessons of this life are what finally let us understand that at depth. She also learned something I needed to hear as a mother. When she could not be in control of everything, her children came together as a team and served each other. She had been keeping them from that blessing by doing it all herself. What you can take with you this week: → Rocks before sand. Adassa's to-do list used to be all high priority, which meant none of it was. Put God in the day first, then family, then let the small things fill in the gaps. It does not fit the other way around. → Let someone serve you. Including your kids. Especially your kids. → Protect silence. She used to fill every moment with noise. Now she listens — which is, fittingly, Dolores's whole gift. One line worth sitting with: "Sometimes that strength could be a smile. Sometimes that strength is just hanging on for another day and knowing that there's still hope."

    Resilient Identity: The Motherhood Stories We Don't Talk About

    This second half of the conversation goes deeper into the complicated stories many mothers carry quietly. Tiffany and Michelle talk about birth, motherhood, adoption, estrangement, grief, shame, forgiveness, faith, family relationships, and the ache of loving your children through chapters that do not always resolve neatly. Together, they explore what happens when mothers are judged by one piece of their story instead of being supported through the whole of it. They also discuss the grief that can come with adoption, the pain of estranged relationships, the process of forgiving yourself, and the hope that God can still bring meaning, healing, and redemption into the most complicated places. This episode is for the mother who has felt alone in her story, the woman learning to forgive herself, the parent navigating strained family relationships, and anyone who wants to better understand the unseen weight many mothers carry. There is healing when shame comes into the light. There is hope when mothers are met with compassion instead of judgment. And there is power in remembering that even the hardest parts of our stories can become places where God’s grace meets us.

    Resilient Identity: Forgiving the Woman You Used to Be

    What if the woman you have been judging the harshest is the younger version of yourself? In Part One of this powerful conversation on The Resilient Mother Podcast, Tiffany Lorraine Galloway sits down with Michelle Thooft, author of A River Runs Through Us, for a deeply honest conversation about resilient identity, motherhood, illness, faith, and self-forgiveness. Michelle shares the story of walking through burnout, a cancer diagnosis, estrangement, and the painful memories she carried from earlier seasons of motherhood. Through her journey, she discovered that healing was not only about surviving illness or hardship, but also about learning to forgive the younger version of herself who was doing the best she could with what she knew at the time. This episode is for the mother who has ever looked back with regret, carried shame from the past, or wondered if healing is still possible. You are not alone. Your story is not over. And grace can reach even the places you have hidden from yourself. GUEST BIO: Michelle Thooft is a writer and author of A River Runs Through Us, a memoir about self-forgiveness, motherhood, illness, estrangement, and learning to live with faith when life does not resolve the way we hoped.

    Resilient Identity: Creating the Support Mothers Need

    Mothers were never meant to do this alone. In this week’s episode of The Resilient Mother Podcast, Tiffany Lorraine Galloway is joined by Jiemi Gao, founder of Nori, for a powerful conversation on Resilient Identity: Creating the Support Mothers Need. Together, they explore how motherhood reshapes identity, why so many moms feel overwhelmed by advice and comparison, and how real human connection can help mothers trust themselves again. Jiemi shares the heart behind Nori, a support network designed to help mothers connect through mentorship, community conversations, and shared lived experience. What began as a mom mentorship platform has grown into a space where mothers can find support, offer wisdom, and remember they are not alone. This episode also explores the pressure mothers feel to “get it right,” the loneliness many moms experience, the impact of technology and social media, and why building community is one of the most powerful acts of resilience. Because resilient mothers are not built in isolation. They are strengthened through connection, honest conversation, support, and the courage to create the village they wish they had. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: • How motherhood changes identity • Why moms need more than expert advice and online information • The importance of mentorship and peer support • Learning to trust yourself as a mother • The pressure of perfectionism in motherhood • Creating community when you feel isolated • Why support is not a luxury for mothers • How mothers can both receive support and offer it • The heart behind Nori and Jiemi’s mission to support moms GUEST BIO: Jiemi Gao is the founder of Nori, a support network created to help mothers connect through mentorship, small group discussions, and meaningful community. As a mother of two, Jiemi began building Nori from her own experience of needing more support in motherhood, especially after becoming one of the first in her friend circle to have children and navigating early motherhood during the COVID years. Through Nori, Jiemi is creating a space where mothers can find encouragement, share lived experience, and support one another through every stage of motherhood.

    Resilient Identity: You Are Not Broken, You Are Becoming

    What if resilience is not about bouncing back? What if resilience is about becoming? In this episode of The Resilient Mother Podcast, host Tiffany Lorraine Galloway sits down with Maz Alexander, a mental health and well-being coach, author, speaker, and social worker, for a deeply meaningful conversation on resilient identity. Together, Tiffany and Maz explore what happens when motherhood, caregiving, trauma, burnout, and survival mode begin to shape the way we see ourselves. Maz shares a powerful perspective on resilience, reminding us that healing is not always about returning to who we were before life changed. For many women, mothers, caregivers, and nurturers, resilience is learning how to move forward with wisdom, self-compassion, and a deeper understanding of who we are becoming. This conversation touches on: Motherhood and the shifting sense of identity Caregiving and burnout Mental health and self-worth The stories we tell ourselves Trauma responses and nervous system safety Asking for support instead of suffering in silence Breaking generational patterns Reclaiming the woman beneath the roles Building a healthier legacy for the next generation The beauty of kintsugi as a metaphor for healing Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold. Instead of hiding the cracks, the repair becomes part of the beauty. And isn’t that such a powerful picture of resilience? The broken places do not erase your value. They can become part of the masterpiece. If you have ever felt like you lost pieces of yourself while mothering, caregiving, surviving, rebuilding, or holding everything together, this episode is for you. You are not broken. You are becoming. Guest Bio Maz Alexander is a mental health and well-being coach, author, speaker, and social worker based in London. Through her work, Maz supports women, mothers, caregivers, and leaders in exploring identity, emotional well-being, self-worth, healing, and transformation.

    When Resilience Turns Into Resentment: Your Next Move

    What happens when the resilience that helped you survive starts quietly turning into resentment? In this episode of The Resilient Mother Podcast, host Tiffany Lorraine Galloway sits down with Philippa Scott of Fantastic Futures for a deeply meaningful conversation about motherhood, burnout, identity, nervous system regulation, trauma-informed parenting, and the kind of support mothers truly need. So many mothers are praised for being strong, capable, dependable, and resilient. But what happens when that strength becomes survival mode? What happens when a mother spends years carrying everyone else, advocating for her children, managing emotions, holding the family together, and rarely having space to exhale? Philippa shares from her experience as a trauma therapist, birth worker, mother, grandmother, and creator of The Regulated Mother Method™. Her work supports mothers in healing old patterns, regulating the nervous system, and creating healthier futures for themselves and their children. In this conversation, Tiffany and Philippa explore the idea that resilience is meant to be something we move into during hard seasons — not somewhere we are supposed to live forever. They also talk about the importance of tribe, the impact of generational patterns, the emotional weight mothers carry, and why healing often begins when we stop performing strength and start receiving support. This episode is for the mother who has been strong for a long time. The one who keeps showing up. The one who is tired of carrying everything alone. The one who knows she does not want to stay resentful, overwhelmed, or disconnected — but may not know what her next move should be. Maybe your next move is not pushing harder. Maybe your next move is learning how to exhale, receive support, regulate your nervous system, and remember that your value is not only found in what you do for everyone else. In This Episode Tiffany and Philippa discuss: When resilience becomes survival mode Why mothers need calm, support, and connection How burnout can show up as resentment Nervous system regulation in motherhood Trauma-informed parenting and generational healing Why finding your tribe matters The identity shift from doing everything to knowing your value How mothers can begin creating a safer emotional foundation at home Why healing yourself impacts the next generation Guest Bio Philippa Scott is the founder of Fantastic Futures and a trauma therapist, birth worker, mother, grandmother, and creator of The Regulated Mother Method™. She supports mothers and families through trauma-informed parenting, nervous system regulation, birth and parenting support, generational healing, and practical tools for creating healthier family relationships.

    Resilient Style: Wardrobe Wellness for Mothers Edition

    Motherhood has a way of reshaping everything — your time, your priorities, your body, and sometimes even your sense of personal identity. In this meaningful conversation, Tiffany welcomes Solita C. Roberts, founder of Style To Impact, a wardrobe wellness speaker and personal stylist who reframes style as a tool for identity, emotional well-being, self-awareness, and navigating life’s transitions. Solita’s work focuses on the space between who we have been and who we are becoming. In this episode, she and Tiffany talk honestly about what happens when mothers begin to feel disconnected from their closets, uncomfortable in their changing bodies, or unsure how to dress in a way that still feels like them. This is not a conversation about chasing fashion rules or performing for other people. It is about learning to: release clothing that drains your energy build a wardrobe that supports your real life dress for your current season instead of clinging to a past version of yourself let inspiration guide you without falling into comparison model self-respect, body acceptance, and joyful self-expression for your children Tiffany and Solita also explore how style can become a powerful connector — helping women show up with confidence, spark conversations, and feel more at home in their own presence. Whether you are navigating postpartum changes, midlife shifts, a major life transition, or simply realizing your closet no longer reflects who you are, this episode is a gentle invitation to begin again. You do not have to “get style right.” You get to choose what helps you feel comfortable, expressed, and celebrated in the body and season you are in now.
