In this episode of The Parent Doctor podcast, I’m excited to welcome my friend Rachel, a serial entrepreneur and mother, to share her incredible journey of personal growth and parenting. Rachel has a unique story, having raised children at two very different stages of her life—first in her 20s and now again with her 7-year-old son. She offers deep insights into the challenges she faced as a young mom, navigating an unplanned pregnancy, divorce, and rediscovering herself along the way.
Rachel opens up about how she balanced college, a career, and motherhood after becoming pregnant at 20, and how that shaped her journey as a mother. She reflects on the importance of taking accountability for her actions and healing from her own childhood trauma, which led to a transformative shift in her relationship with her two adult daughters. By embracing vulnerability and personal responsibility, Rachel was able to rebuild a stronger, more fulfilling connection with her kids.
We also talk about our shared experience attending a public speaking intensive through the Speakers Institute. We both signed up for the event on a whim, but it ended up being a profound experience of growth for both of us, teaching us how to connect emotionally with others and tell our stories in an impactful way.
Rachel also shares her passion for self-improvement, which is evident in her career as the owner of Renuvole Body Solutions, a spa in Orange County, California. She introduces her latest venture, "No Tox Healer," which focuses on non-invasive, natural beauty treatments that are paired with inner healing. Her philosophy emphasizes that true beauty starts from within, and aligning the inner self with the outer appearance is the key to looking and feeling your best.
This episode is filled with heartfelt reflections on parenting, healing generational trauma, and stepping into personal accountability to create a better future for ourselves and our children. I hope you enjoy it!
