Join us for an enlightening conversation with our special guest, Emanuela Hall, a Catholic speaking coach and story consultant, who transformed her life from a theatre actress to a homeschooling mom of three. Emanuela shares her transformative three-step process from her chapter contribution to the book "Mama's Gotta Grow," involving guided visualization, creative expression, and the power of storytelling to help mothers discover their newfound identity in their role as a mother.
Struggling with the pressures of perfect motherhood? Hear personal postpartum experiences, including the emotional turmoil following an unexpected C-section.
