This week on Mom-Life, Sonya sits down with Mel, a mom of three, military wife, entrepreneur, aesthetician, and travel advisor, who shares what life really looks like behind the scenes of motherhood.

Mel opens up about:

• Navigating postpartum depression
• Raising three kids while building two careers
• The challenges of military deployments and parenting solo
• Processing miscarriage and finding healing through therapy
• Why moms need to talk more about hormones, mental health, and the hard parts of motherhood
• Finding humor in the chaos of baseball, toddlers, and everyday mom moments

This episode is equal parts laughter, honesty, and healing, and a reminder that even in survival mode, moms are stronger than they know.
