Motherhood changes everything — your routines, your energy, and especially your friendships. As life gets busier and capacity feels smaller, many moms wonder: how do I stay connected when I barely have time for myself?

In this heartfelt and practical episode, Greer sits down with Stephanie May Wilson — author, speaker, and trusted friendship mentor — to talk about how friendships evolve during motherhood and why authentic community matters now more than ever.

A mom of twin girls, Stephanie shares her real-life experiences of navigating the early, overwhelming days of motherhood, offering honest encouragement and simple, doable ways to nurture connection even when life feels full.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why friendship is essential for moms’ mental and emotional health

How to stay connected when energy and time are limited

Creative ways to blend motherhood and friendship

Why “small moments” can sustain meaningful relationships

How modelling healthy friendships benefits your children

This episode is for every mom craving connection and reassurance that you’re not alone — real community is still possible, even in the busiest season of motherhood.
