Today’s episode is incredibly close to our hearts because we’re interviewing the most important woman in our lives—our mom. She’s 67 years old, and over the last few years she has carried the dual role of being our dad’s primary caregiver while also rediscovering herself. What’s remarkable is how she’s grown through this stage of life—not just surviving, but thriving in ways she never imagined. She’s found new confidence, fresh energy, and a sense of independence. She’s taken on more responsibility, learned to manage finances, and found ways to handle stress with grace. She’s built her own network of support, from her yoga circle to new friendships, and with it, she’s created a space where she feels seen, valued, and empowered.In a world where aging women—especially in small towns—are often overlooked, our mom’s story shows what’s possible when resilience, community, and self-belief come together. Today we’ll talk to her about how she grew her courage and confidence, how her community changed, and what it means to age with dignity, joy, and strength.This is a conversation about reinvention, belonging, and love—and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.You can find more episodes of Chocolate & Spice: Two Brown Women Talk wherever you get your podcasts—Spotify, Apple, YouTube Podcasts, and more.
