    Guest: Siannon Lee
    Season 3, Episode 36
    Air Date: May 27th, 2025 – 6PM MST
    Listen on: Apple Podcasts | YouTube | Newsletter

    💔 What happens when love isn’t enough to keep your family together?
    In this raw, emotional, and incredibly powerful episode, I sit down with Siannon Lee, a resilient mother who opens up about the heartbreak of seperation—and what it means to keep fighting for your child when the world tells you to give up.

    This episode is for the mother:

    who’s been gaslit in court,
    who’s cried on the kitchen floor,
    who’s questioned her strength,
    and who needs to know—you are not alone.
    Siannon shares how she kept her faith, rebuilt her voice, and stood her ground through the deep grief of seperation. Her story is one of courage, clarity, and that fierce, unbreakable love only a mother knows.

    💬 “Put your oxygen mask on first. There’s no such thing as a hopeless situation.” – [1:00:49]
    Let that land in your heart, mama.
    🔑 What You’ll Hear:
    [00:00] Welcome & a message of hope for mothers at their breaking point
    [08:12] Siannon’s story—love, loss, and the slow unraveling of “forever”
    [21:40] Reclaiming her voice and choosing to keep showing up, even when it hurt
    [38:10] What no one tells you about navigating the legal system as a mother
    [1:00:49] The quote that will anchor you when everything feels hopeless
    [1:03:00] Siannon’s message to every mom: “You matter. You are not crazy. And your fight is worth it.”
    💌 Why This Episode Matters:
    Because your story is not over.

    This episode is a lifeline for mothers going through custody battles, post-divorce recovery, or emotional abuse. It’s for the woman who’s exhausted—but still gets up for her kids. Who's been dismissed—but won't stay silent. Who needs someone to say: I see you. And there is healing ahead.

    🚨 This is Part One of our special live episode! Stay tuned for Part Two, where we continue the conversation.

    Episode Highlights (First 30 Minutes)

    In this heartfelt live episode, Tiffany Lorraine Galloway, CHPC, and Catherine Tyson-Sewell, MSW, dive deep into pressing topics such as resilience, self-care, and child protection. The live format lets them connect directly with listeners, creating an engaging and interactive atmosphere: “We are live! We can see your comments, and we can take questions!”

    The conversation begins by addressing the often-overlooked issue of self-care for mothers, with Tiffany explaining how it frequently gets pushed aside when juggling so many responsibilities. “Self-care is essential, but it gets pushed aside when we’re juggling so much.” This speaks to the hearts of mothers everywhere who struggle to prioritize their own needs amidst the chaos of daily life.

    Tiffany then highlights burnout and its subtle but dangerous effects: “Sometimes, burnout happens when you feel like you’re constantly giving, with nothing left for yourself.” Both hosts reflect on the importance of recognizing and addressing burnout early, acknowledging that it often creeps in without warning.

    Catherine emphasizes healthy boundaries as one of the key strategies to prevent burnout, sharing her personal experiences and tips: “Learning to ask for help is a game-changer.” This advice empowers mothers to recognize when they need support and take action to protect their well-being.

    The conversation shifts to resilience, with both Tiffany and Catherine explaining how resilience isn’t an inherent trait but a skill that can be nurtured: “Resilience is about learning how to bounce back, no matter how hard life gets.” They discuss the importance of building emotional strength through mindfulness, self-compassion, and leaning on supportive communities.

    A critical topic arises when the hosts address child molestation and the importance of protecting children from such dangers. Tiffany and Catherine stress the need for parents to be proactive in their children’s safety, teaching them how to protect themselves and how to speak up. This portion of the conversation is deeply emotional and highlights the importance of awareness, education, and empowerment in preventing child molestation.

    The episode ends with a strong message of empowerment for mothers, encouraging them to stay actively engaged in their children’s lives and to foster environments where their children feel safe and supported. Tiffany and Catherine provide valuable resources and practical advice on how to help prevent child molestation and how to equip children with the tools they need for their safety.
