They Met Different Versions of Me

from Becoming - A space for the woman who’s been everything but seen · host Sarah La’Joy

My kids are four years apart —which means they met different versions of me.Not because I didn’t love them.Not because I didn’t try.But because life kept changing me.In this episode, I’m reflecting on motherhood through postpartum depression, deployments, starting over in new states without family nearby, and learning how to keep going even when I felt empty.We talk about guilt, grace, survival seasons, and what it looks like to parent from healing instead of survival.About the moments that didn’t look perfect — but were still rooted in love.If you’re a mom…if you’re healing while raising kids…or if you’ve been strong for so long that rest feels unfamiliar —this conversation is for you.
