In this heartfelt and honest conversation, I’m joined by teacher and author Natalie Boccia—mom of three kids spanning a decade, cancer survivor, and champion for healing through storytelling. We talk about what it’s like to parent across two generations under one roof while navigating perimenopause, personal growth, and the ever-changing needs of her family.
Together, we explore the evolving nature of self-esteem and body confidence, relinquishing control while the kids gain more independence and why we all need a quiet time. Natalie opens up about her cancer journey and how it shapes her parenting.
If you're juggling parenting, personal growth, and everything in between, this episode is a must-listen.
