Episode Description
What does it really look like to show up as a working mom—with honesty, grace, and self-trust?
In this heartfelt episode of Radiant Mom Rising, Mary Dibble sits down with Robin Goad, author and advocate for women navigating the many phases of life. Together, they explore what it means to own your story, honor your truth, and lead with authenticity—especially when balancing career, motherhood, and personal growth.
At the time of recording, both Mary and Robin were under the weather—and instead of striving for perfection, they chose presence. This episode is a powerful reminder that motherhood (and life) isn’t about always pushing through or always pausing—it’s about learning when to do each with intention.
✨ In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
How owning your narrative changes how you show up at work and at home
Identifying your personal “superpowers” as a woman and a mom
Navigating corporate spaces without abandoning who you are
Giving yourself grace through transitions, mistakes, and growth
Why community and transparency matter at every stage of life
This episode is for the mom who wants to feel seen, supported, and reminded that she’s allowed to evolve—without apology.
