Gotcha Mama Podcast Episode 61 – How to Grow Your Village with Emily Siegel

We’re continuing to the conversation about identity and motherhood. And this month we’re digging into specifically how your support system and your village (or lack thereof) affects your identity as a mom.

Do you ever look around as a mom and think “gosh, everyone else has so many friends and I don’t? I’m definitely the odd mom out.”

Well, guess what? You aren’t alone if you said ‘yes’. It’s actually more common than you may think.

So what do we do about it?

Why does it seem so hard to make friends as an adult?

Well, that’s exactly what I talk about with my guest on this episode, Emily Siegel.

Emily is the host of The Connected Mom Life podcast (formerly The Corporate Mom Life podcast) among the many hats that she wears.

Emily offers so many tips, encouragement, and practical takeaways to grow your circle of friends (aka, your village).

This conversation is so very timely to talk about connecting with people since it’s been a loooooong five or so months of life with Covid around and not being able to connect with anyone like we used to.

Get out a pen and paper to take notes when you listen to this one!

About the Guest

Emily is a corporate mom and fierce friend. Host of The Connected Mom Life Podcast, she believes that authentic connections are not a nice-to-have, they’re a must-have!

And she is on a mission to help moms create more of them. Because she knows we weren’t made to mom alone, and it’s time to stop trying. 

We talk about

  • Why she pivoted in her podcast
  • Her perspective on how your support system affects your personal identity as a mom
  • What she did to build consistency into her friendships with no pressure and low stress. You’re going to love what she talks about here. So don’t miss it!
  • She gives us some first steps to take for finding and building your village, yes even if you’re an introvert!

More about the Gotcha Mama Podcast:

The Gotcha Mama Podcast is where we share honest stories of the joys and struggles of mom-life with young kids.

Each week host Amanda Bennett interviews a mom about topics ranging from awkwardly making mom friends, to chasing BIG dreams and finding purpose, to managing crippling anxiety and depression. You’ll hear stories from moms like you with the purpose to inspire, encourage, and entertain you.

We understand that motherhood can be lonely and make you doubt yourself. The Gotcha Mama Podcast exists to let you know that you are not alone as a busy mom of young kiddos, no matter what you’re dealing with.

The show is all about tearing down our insecurities as moms by honestly sharing our stories and a little of what we’ve learned along the way.

We believe it’s a whole lot better riding the rollercoaster of motherhood together!
