    Episode Title: Part 2: Epilepsy, Motherhood & Newborn Chaos
    Description:
    Welcome to Part 2 of this 3-part series, where I continue sharing my personal journey of becoming a mom while living with epilepsy. In this episode, I talk about the emotional experience of bringing my newborn daughter home and the overwhelming fears that came with it. From learning to manage my seizures on little to no sleep, to the terrifying reality of having a seizure while caring for a baby—this chapter of my life was anything but easy. I also open up about how, as my daughter grew, I had to teach her what to do if I ever had a seizure. This isn’t just a story about motherhood—it’s about survival, strength, and figuring it all out when life doesn’t play fair.

    Teaser Episode: Welcome to Mom’s Unfiltered – Let’s Get Real

    Welcome to the teaser episode of Mom’s Unfiltered — a brand new podcast where nothing is off-limits and everything is real. I’m your host, Donna, and in this short intro, I’ll share a bit about who I am, why I created this podcast, and what you can expect from future episodes.

    As a teen mom, someone living with epilepsy, and now a business owner and advocate for others, I’ve lived through some wild, painful, and hilarious moments — and I know I’m not the only one. This podcast is for every kind of parent out there — moms, dads, single, married, divorced, figuring it out as they go — and anyone who just wants a space to feel seen, heard, and supported.

    Mom’s Unfiltered will dive into real-life experiences like parenting while living with a disability, being judged for your choices, trying to build a life and a business, and the chaos that comes with dating, co-parenting, or just surviving the day. Some episodes will be deep and emotional. Others will be wild and hilarious. But all of it will be real.

    This is a safe space to laugh, cry, learn, and connect. My goal is to build a community where we can uplift each other and share the stories most people are too afraid to talk about.

    So if you’re ready to join me on this ride — hit follow, subscribe, and get ready for Episode 1 where we kick things off with the very real story of how I found out I was pregnant as a teen… and how a library book ended up spilling the secret.

    We’re just getting started — and I’m so glad you’re here.
