Podcast Episode 324: Stop Doing It Alone: The 6 Friends Every Mom Needs in Her Life with Florence Ann Romano

Why do we, as moms, think a gold star awaits us if we do everything solo? Newsflash: running on empty and feeling isolated isn’t the badge of honor we’ve been led to believe. In fact, the real key to thriving as a mom (and, let’s face it, as a human) is community. Because if there’s one thing we all need to survive motherhood, it’s people who’ve got our backs—six of them, to be exact.

In this episode, we’re diving into the six must-have friends every mom needs in her corner. Our amazing guest, Florence Ann Romano, personal growth strategist and author of Build Your Village: A Guide to Finding Joy and Community in Every Stage of Life explains why it’s time to ditch the guilt of asking for help and embrace the magic of real, meaningful connections. These aren’t just “grab coffee and chat” pals; these are your lifelines when the toddler meltdown feels Olympic-level, or you’re this close to hiding in the pantry. From the wise mentor to the fellow warrior in the trenches, we’re breaking down why finding your tribe is the ultimate mom hack.

Motherhood is hard enough without trying to go it alone- seriously. This episode is your permission slip to ask for help, lean into connections, and finally ditch the guilt of needing your village. Because who are the happiest moms? They’re the ones who know when to call for reinforcements—and how to laugh through the chaos together.
