☀️ Hidden Chapters Summer Replay Series | Genevieve and her Mom's story

Send me a message via text or voicemail!☀️ As part of the Hidden Chapters Summer Replay Series, we’re revisiting conversations that shaped the heart of this podcast, stories that continue to reflect the themes introduced in the Season 3 bridge trailer. ☀️This week we begin where so many stories begin: family. This conversation with my mom is one of the earliest and most meaningful episodes ever recorded.  It's a story about motherhood, sacrifice, generational strength, and the parts of our families we don't always think to ask about until later in life.  Start here. This one holds the foundation! Original Shownote: This first interview episode is deeply personal. It’s not just the beginning of the podcast, it’s a celebration of Mother’s Day, my 45th birthday, and the woman whose quiet strength shaped my life, my mom.For the first time ever, she shares her side of the story. Her journey into motherhood, the unexpected challenges she faced, and the life changing choices she made with courage and love.We talk about the moment she found out she was pregnant with me, the weight of that reality, and the resilience it took to raise me through it all. She opens up about single motherhood, family support, military life, pursuing education as a parent, and the hope that comes with finding love later on.This episode is a tribute to the unseen courage so many women carry, and a reminder that the stories we often keep hidden are the ones that shape us the most.I’m incredibly honored she chose to tell her story here, with me. Thank you for being here for this meaningful beginning.Special Dedication: 🎵 The song that my mom kept for us: “You and me against the world” By Helen Reddy  https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=F34c1Re8k5s&si=_Fz3V7Mm-SiGFdaYSupport the show🌐  Visit my website: https://hiddenchapterspodcast.com/ and stay connected! 🎙️  Want to be a guest on Hidden Chapters: Real Stories that Bring Light to the Hidden Parts of Life?
