- 6:51Speaker 4: It's a picture, it's beautiful. I like the purple. This
- 6:58Speaker 4: is actually value four of the series. I was honored
- 7:05Speaker 4: to be part of volume three and four with the
- 7:09Speaker 4: Moments for Moms. They're doing the volume five. They just
- 7:13Speaker 4: started recruiting for that. But it was a really it
- 7:17Speaker 4: was a really good experience because I had it's a nonfiction,
- 7:23Speaker 4: so you know, I got to tell the real about
- 7:28Speaker 4: about myself as a mom.
- 7:30Speaker 1: So I think that.
- 7:31Speaker 4: Part was the hardest part is being vulnerable and telling
- 7:35Speaker 4: it's you know, it's not fake, it's not a fiction.
- 7:37Speaker 3: It's the real truth what I've gone through.
- 7:41Speaker 1: As a mom.
- 7:42Speaker 2: I'm still going through some you know, it's the resilience
- 7:46Speaker 2: of motherhood.
- 7:46Speaker 4: There's challenges, there's joys. I had to tell all of that.
- 7:52Speaker 1: So what was the hardest part about telling your story
- 7:56Speaker 1: in this volume. I was nervous.
- 8:02Speaker 3: It was really it was hard to tell the truth.
- 8:07Speaker 4: Not you know, not that I was lying, but you know,
- 8:09Speaker 4: I really had to dig deep and share like a
- 8:14Speaker 4: raw story of my life. And so that was that
- 8:20Speaker 4: was really that's why I did fiction because I.
- 8:24Speaker 3: Can make that up, you know, I can make those
- 8:28Speaker 3: characters up.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm not totally understand I guess, you know,
- 8:36Speaker 2: when it comes down to being a mother, I didn't
- 8:41Speaker 2: noticing that I'm starting and I don't know this might
- 8:44Speaker 2: be TikTok algorithm.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Or whatever, but I'm seeing a lot of men.
- 8:50Speaker 2: Are now chiming up as saying, you know what, as
- 8:53Speaker 2: a man, I have to give homish to the mother
- 8:57Speaker 2: because I can walk away, he still.
- 9:00Speaker 1: Won't be there.
- 9:02Speaker 2: And there's a lot of mothers know that, hey, we're
- 9:06Speaker 2: going to be there.
- 9:07Speaker 5: But now on the flip side of that, I'm just
- 9:11Speaker 5: seeing a lot of mothers being like, look, hey, keep
- 9:16Speaker 5: your responsibility.
- 9:18Speaker 1: So how does how do you feel about that? Seeing
- 9:22Speaker 1: that there's this new shift in motherhood.
- 9:31Speaker 3: I don't know how to feel about that.
- 9:34Speaker 2: I you know, things, things change, shifts happen, So I
- 9:43Speaker 2: think that's just just a part of.
- 9:47Speaker 3: I don't want to say life.
- 9:49Speaker 4: But you know, just as as as we change, as
- 9:53Speaker 4: the world changes, as you know, people grow up, people
- 9:58Speaker 4: get mature, you.
- 10:00Speaker 3: Know, things has changed. I just know there's in this.
- 10:05Speaker 4: Last book there's a lot of moms who really are
- 10:09Speaker 4: out here, strong, strong moms doing their thing. Single even
- 10:16Speaker 4: there's there's some married moms in the book. But being
- 10:19Speaker 4: a mom is still a hard job. There's it's it's rewarding,
- 10:25Speaker 4: but it is challenging and it's gonna always be that way.
- 10:31Speaker 3: You know, you.
- 10:35Speaker 1: I totally understand, totally understand.
- 10:41Speaker 3: That's a whole time job by itself.
- 10:44Speaker 1: It is. And and.
- 10:49Speaker 2: I see you guys have the four volumes? Have have
- 10:52Speaker 2: you written any other volumes?
- 10:54Speaker 1: Correct? Yes?
- 10:55Speaker 3: I wrote in volume three?
- 10:58Speaker 2: Okay, So let's can you compare writing and volume three
- 11:02Speaker 2: as a mother and writing in volume four as a mother?
- 11:06Speaker 2: Is there a difference between the two or you're still
- 11:10Speaker 2: there as in everything is still the same. Do you
- 11:14Speaker 2: feel a difference between the two volumes and writing?
- 11:19Speaker 4: Yes, I feel there's some growth. So the first so
- 11:22Speaker 4: the volume three, that first one that I wrote in
- 11:28Speaker 4: like I said, it was, I was vulnerable. I had
- 11:31Speaker 4: to be vulnerable, and I had to share my experiences.
- 11:36Speaker 4: So in that first volume, I was a little more nervous.
- 11:40Speaker 4: I didn't really know what to expect or how to
- 11:45Speaker 4: culminate my feelings and really share my role as a mother.
- 11:52Speaker 4: But then the second book or the fourth volume, I
- 11:56Speaker 4: felt like I grew a little more and I came
- 11:59Speaker 4: to understand and that my story could reach. My story
- 12:04Speaker 4: resonates with other moms. It can resonate, and that's I'm
- 12:10Speaker 4: understanding that. You know, others will will learn from from it.
- 12:15Speaker 4: They're just gonna learn, They're gonna learn from me from
- 12:18Speaker 4: my story. And it's okay. It's okay to share that
- 12:23Speaker 4: vulnerable side of you as a mother because the audience
- 12:28Speaker 4: are moms and they know exactly what you're feeling, and
- 12:33Speaker 4: they're going to understand where you're coming from. So I
- 12:36Speaker 4: grew a lot and I matured a lot from that
- 12:39Speaker 4: book to now.
- 12:42Speaker 2: You know, and I totally totally understand where you're coming from,
- 12:45Speaker 2: because you never know that mother that is sitting in
- 12:48Speaker 2: that corner reading your book and they say, I am
- 12:52Speaker 2: here at where you were in this book, and your
- 12:56Speaker 2: your words.
- 12:57Speaker 1: Encourage them to keep going.
- 12:59Speaker 2: You know, I'm very happy that my best friend, she's
- 13:03Speaker 2: a mom and our girls get along.
- 13:05Speaker 1: And there's some days I call her.
- 13:08Speaker 6: Like, hey, girl, looking here, you got bail money on
- 13:12Speaker 6: the side because one of these two about to have
- 13:13Speaker 6: me in a hole, you know, and she's able to
- 13:18Speaker 6: talk to me.
- 13:19Speaker 1: And it's it's.
- 13:21Speaker 2: It's that that mommy loved, you know.
- 13:25Speaker 1: I feel that that comes through in this book.
- 13:28Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it does.
- 13:31Speaker 4: And I also so I formed a community. I don't
- 13:35Speaker 4: have sisters. So growing up, I was a twin. I
- 13:39Speaker 4: had a twin brother he passed it'll be fifteen years
- 13:43Speaker 4: this year. But I didn't have sisters. So this I
- 13:49Speaker 4: have best friends and that. But this, this community of
- 13:54Speaker 4: moms has really been.
- 13:58Speaker 3: A healing for me.
- 14:00Speaker 4: And we we just connect and although we're it's virtual
- 14:05Speaker 4: right now, and you know we're we're in the group
- 14:08Speaker 4: on Facebook together, but we really connect and we reach
- 14:11Speaker 4: out to each other and we encourage each other.
- 14:14Speaker 2: Uh.
- 14:14Speaker 4: And that's and that's why I joined in the beginning,
- 14:18Speaker 4: and that's why I'm still with this this next volume,
- 14:22Speaker 4: because it's just the sisterhood and the community of moms
- 14:25Speaker 4: coming together and sharing their experiences.
- 14:30Speaker 2: So tell me what is the strongest part or the
- 14:35Speaker 2: biggest strength.
- 14:37Speaker 1: Of a mom or being a.
- 14:40Speaker 4: The biggest strength of being a mom?
- 14:50Speaker 1: Hm hm, the biggest good question, because that.
- 15:00Speaker 3: Wow, the biggest strength. So for me, I guess for
- 15:08Speaker 3: me it.
- 15:08Speaker 4: Would be the standing of especially my younger child. Now,
- 15:15Speaker 4: you know, I I'm learning that that they have a voice,
- 15:20Speaker 4: not not not that they didn't, but you know, I
- 15:24Speaker 4: grew up and I guess I wasn't as free to
- 15:29Speaker 4: express as I let my son do now and I'm understanding.
- 15:32Speaker 3: He does have a voice.
- 15:34Speaker 4: He really does have some personality, personality and things he
- 15:41Speaker 4: wants to engage in. And I need to listen and
- 15:43Speaker 4: understand more and not just throw the book. But I'm
- 15:46Speaker 4: the mom or you know, I'm the adult, and that's
- 15:49Speaker 4: that the kid. The kid got he got something to
- 15:53Speaker 4: say and and I really need to sometimes listen instead
- 15:57Speaker 4: of just speaking and thinking, okay, whatever, it's really not whatever,
- 16:02Speaker 4: like it really has something to share and it's okay.
- 16:08Speaker 1: So you know, mommy, the mommy, I'm learning that too.
- 16:12Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna tell you guys, I have a twenty
- 16:15Speaker 2: three year old son and I have a ten year
- 16:17Speaker 2: old daughter.
- 16:20Speaker 1: H difference.
- 16:25Speaker 2: The difference is like understatement, and I have to find
- 16:31Speaker 2: and even my son me with that, I find.
- 16:36Speaker 1: Myself like, who are you talking to?
- 16:39Speaker 2: But then I have to remember that you know, things
- 16:45Speaker 2: have changed, you know, we have to really hear our
- 16:49Speaker 2: kids out, give them that that moment to be able
- 16:54Speaker 2: to express themselves, but then also be able to be
- 16:58Speaker 2: like like I tell my daughter, you can express yourself
- 17:01Speaker 2: and you could be respectable with Yes, absolutely respects of
- 17:05Speaker 2: you coming at me in the wrong way, believe you me,
- 17:07Speaker 2: I'm coming back, but we're But what my son, who's
- 17:14Speaker 2: twenty three, it was like, I an't asked you that,
- 17:17Speaker 2: you know, but I realized that you know, what you're
- 17:20Speaker 2: saying is sloly correct, that we have to.
- 17:23Speaker 1: This generation needs our ears more than they need our hands.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Yes, you know, it's weird to say that because you know,
- 17:35Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but I'm a child from
- 17:37Speaker 2: the South. That's all I'm gonna say. To understand, you know,
- 17:47Speaker 2: because you don't want nobody getting no trouble. Plus right, Okay, lord,
- 17:53Speaker 2: I just want to get to the gate and see her.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Right, m You're back and I'm back.
- 18:13Speaker 2: All right, We're cool now, Okay, So what would be
- 18:18Speaker 2: the biggest takeaway.
- 18:19Speaker 1: You wanted to give to mothers. When you're reading moments
- 18:22Speaker 1: from Moms Volume four.
- 18:24Speaker 3: I would say, give yourself grace.
- 18:30Speaker 4: I had to learn that and I still and I
- 18:34Speaker 4: have to still remind myself of that.
- 18:37Speaker 3: You're not perfect. You know, you're you're gonna make mistakes.
- 18:41Speaker 3: I mean, you're you're you're human.
- 18:44Speaker 4: But the difference is when you make the mistake, don't
- 18:48Speaker 4: stay there, you know, get back up and keep moving
- 18:52Speaker 4: because your child is watching you. And although you've you've
- 18:57Speaker 4: made the mistake, you know things might have failed, but
- 19:01Speaker 4: you keep going.
- 19:03Speaker 3: You keep going, and you keep moving and don't give up.
- 19:09Speaker 2: Ooh that part, don't give up, you know. I had
- 19:14Speaker 2: to realize that trying to be supermom was hurting me
- 19:23Speaker 2: more in the end and hurting her more in the
- 19:25Speaker 2: end than I thought it was.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Helping. I wasn't able to go to one her award
- 19:33Speaker 1: ceremony and she was like, it's okay, you can see
- 19:35Speaker 1: the war when you get home. Yeah. I was like,
- 19:38Speaker 1: are you sure. She's like yeah. But then I forgot that.
- 19:41Speaker 2: I had this village of other moms who was like, hey,
- 19:44Speaker 2: we know she wasn't there, So we took a picture
- 19:46Speaker 2: of her and her ward for you.
- 19:49Speaker 1: Oh, thank you.
- 19:50Speaker 2: You know, so it's okay to to not be the
- 19:57Speaker 2: way to answer in your chest all the time.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Yes, I thank you.
- 20:02Speaker 2: I thank you for telling me that that great smart
- 20:04Speaker 2: is is very important.

- 24:53Speaker 4: I have favorite movies. But the mom, I don't you
- 24:58Speaker 4: stole me on that one?
- 25:00Speaker 3: I never.
- 25:03Speaker 1: M hm oh when I got another one?
- 25:08Speaker 2: Okay, oh, she just start everybody straw The one had
- 25:16Speaker 2: everybody in a choke hold.
- 25:18Speaker 1: Oh, it had me.
- 25:20Speaker 4: It had me in a choke hol It had me
- 25:21Speaker 4: in a choke hold for like a whole two days.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Let you questioned that that's great.
- 25:28Speaker 2: Let's not that's great, But let's I'm gonna pivot off
- 25:32Speaker 2: of that for a second. How did you feel as
- 25:35Speaker 2: a mom when you finished looking at that?
- 25:40Speaker 4: I I could it resonated, It remnated a lot. I
- 25:48Speaker 4: just I felt like I was in the movie with her.
- 25:50Speaker 4: I was just right about righting, like I could have
- 25:54Speaker 4: been her sidekick, like that's I was just I was
- 25:59Speaker 4: just crying up storm.
- 26:02Speaker 1: To think that there are mothers that are at that point.
- 26:09Speaker 1: I was just going through the movie like okay, you know,
- 26:11Speaker 1: she just wanted to gett your check. And then when
- 26:14Speaker 1: they say that the at the end of the movie
- 26:16Speaker 1: was like mind blown.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Like yes, like I called, I was like, you can
- 26:26Speaker 2: get that bad, can get that.
- 26:27Speaker 4: Bad like as it was just like any we could
- 26:33Speaker 4: get We could be there at any moment the way
- 26:36Speaker 4: life happens.
- 26:38Speaker 3: And I know it's that.
- 26:43Speaker 4: I'm I'm I'm a woman of faith and I believe
- 26:46Speaker 4: in God, and I know, I know Jesus has to
- 26:49Speaker 4: come down sit next to me, because sometimes I'd be
- 26:52Speaker 4: willing to act.
- 26:53Speaker 3: Out, but I was like he must he God know,
- 26:57Speaker 3: let me help her out, let me.
- 27:00Speaker 4: So she won't go off the deep end because it's
- 27:03Speaker 4: it's close.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Where you can h And what would you say to
- 27:08Speaker 2: a mother that is at that point? What advice would
- 27:11Speaker 2: you give to them?
- 27:17Speaker 3: But because I've been there, it hasn't been that extreme.
- 27:22Speaker 4: But because I've been there, I would I would just
- 27:27Speaker 4: encourage him.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Don't give up.
- 27:30Speaker 4: Just keep holding on and keep the faith because it's
- 27:38Speaker 4: gonna work out. It just you know, just don't give
- 27:40Speaker 4: up because it's hard. It's it's it's hard. And that movie,
- 27:46Speaker 4: just like I said, it was two whole days. I
- 27:49Speaker 4: was still on that movie, like it had me thinking
- 27:51Speaker 4: about my past and when when my older two were younger,
- 27:55Speaker 4: and and a few things I went through that was similar,
- 28:00Speaker 4: you know, with the paychecks just not adding up and
- 28:02Speaker 4: the bills just keep coming, and it's like you don't
- 28:06Speaker 4: so you don't feel like you have anyone.
- 28:08Speaker 3: That really can understand. So that it was great.
- 28:13Speaker 2: It was a really good movie.
- 28:17Speaker 1: I remember being at that point.
- 28:19Speaker 2: And I do have sisters, but you know, I used
- 28:24Speaker 2: to and I still do.
- 28:26Speaker 1: And this is a bad thing that I do.
- 28:27Speaker 2: I keep things to myself, so y'all don't judge me,
- 28:32Speaker 2: but this is what I have done in the past.
- 28:35Speaker 1: When I'm really.
- 28:35Speaker 2: Going through and it's that midnight hour and you know
- 28:38Speaker 2: everybody is sleeping and you can't just find somebody. I
- 28:42Speaker 2: have literally doubted my own number and talked to my
- 28:44Speaker 2: voicemail m M and I talked to my voicemail and
- 28:49Speaker 2: I talk it all the way through, and I really
- 28:54Speaker 2: felt better after way. I knew nobody was on the
- 28:57Speaker 2: other end of the phone. But the fact is, every
- 29:00Speaker 2: thing that was in me, that was bothering me, I
- 29:03Speaker 2: was able to.
- 29:03Speaker 1: As they say, purge it out.
- 29:05Speaker 2: Yes, So in the midnight moms, when you you prayed
- 29:11Speaker 2: and you don't stand and you you.
- 29:14Speaker 1: You just need that one extra thing. Yeah, I've done.
- 29:19Speaker 1: That's good.
- 29:22Speaker 2: It was, it was I was yeah, and I can't
- 29:26Speaker 2: feel better, you know, sometimes I have.
- 29:29Speaker 1: To get it out right. Okay, one more question. Okay,
- 29:37Speaker 1: you can choose anyone to play you as a mother?
- 29:44Speaker 1: Mm hm who would it be? And why did you
- 29:48Speaker 1: choose them?
- 29:49Speaker 4: If I could choose anyone, Okay, she's gonna be young
- 29:55Speaker 4: because I have to that youthful love.
- 30:03Speaker 3: Okay, off right off the top of my head.
- 30:06Speaker 4: And just because I saw her in the movie with
- 30:10Speaker 4: method Man, I would choose Kelly Rowland.
- 30:14Speaker 1: She said, Method Man. I'm sorry, did you see did
- 30:17Speaker 1: you see?
- 30:17Speaker 3: Did you see the movie?
- 30:19Speaker 1: I am planning on looking at that this weekend. Isn't
- 30:21Speaker 1: that the It's on Prime.
- 30:28Speaker 3: I just watched it.
- 30:30Speaker 4: It's great, You're gonna love It's it's good.
- 30:34Speaker 1: It's good.
- 30:34Speaker 2: I couldn't see them two together. It was just it's
- 30:38Speaker 2: really good they have. It's a really good chemistry.
- 30:41Speaker 4: I didn't at first I was thinking about it was
- 30:44Speaker 4: like them two, it's great. They had a really good
- 30:48Speaker 4: chemistry on set. So I would choose her only because
- 30:53Speaker 4: I think she's a great actress. I think she would
- 30:56Speaker 4: do that part justice. And then that the man would
- 31:00Speaker 4: have to be my man, the guy who play he'd
- 31:06Speaker 4: have to play to the love interest.
- 31:10Speaker 1: We'll see by that.
