Tears on the Hardwood Floor w/ Special Guest Keshia "Kay" Jenkins

What does it really take to break cycles and build something healthier for the next generation? In this powerful episode of Nailed It Motherhood, host Tamara Eldridge sits down with Keshia "Kay" Jenkins - a mother of four, maternal health advocate and doula, and living example of resilience. Keshia bravely shares her journey through forced marriage, abuse, postpartum challenges, and the mental health battles that shaped not only her motherhood, but her mission. Together, Tamara and Keshia unpack the realities of parenting while healing from trauma, the impact of generational patterns like corporal punishment, and why therapy isn’t a luxury, but a lifeline. From early childhood education to trauma-informed care, this conversation centers compassion, honesty, and the courage it takes to show up for yourself and your children.Keshia’s story is raw, affirming, and deeply hopeful. It's an encouraging reminder that advocacy often begins with survival, and that transparency in motherhood can change lives.Stay Connected to Keshia:Facebook: KaytheAdvocateInstagram: kaytheadvocateTikTok: kaytheadvocateSend us Fan MailSupport the showWe might  have the recipe nobody wrote down!Shop Nailed It MotherhoodIf you'd like to share your story, sign up to be a guest here!Support Our Podcast by "Buying Me a Coffee".Join the Conversation and Subscribe to our Podcast:www.naileditmotherhood.com https://www.skool.com/nailed-it-motherhood-podcast-6812/aboutFollow us online:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nailed.it.motherhood.podcast/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/naileditmotherhood/is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcPodcast CreditsHost & Producer: Tamara EldridgeMusic from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/moire/new-life License code: 8BJOM5NVSQEO1S7XRising Above (Short Version) BoDleasons https://pixabay.com/users/bodleasons-28047609/
