1 Strong Mother: Recent Episodes
Ashley Mussyal and Sarah Hanes
We are just two moms who bring light to all the highs and lows of motherhood and the lessons nobody is talking about. Buckle up and come along for the ride as we open up about our own experiences through motherhood, you will laugh, cry, and grow with us as we are ever evolving forward as mothers, entrepreneurs, leaders, and wives.
Ladies it was such an honor to sit down and hold an incredibly powerful conversation with Racquel Frisella, she is an entrepreneur, business owner, mom to 3 kiddos, wife, and many more hats. We talk about how she started on her journey, what called her to step into the discomfort of starting her own business, how her marriage plays a roll in her success, and what it was like doing 75Hard through the whole process. You guys this was so powerful and can serve as some major motivation and an amazing example of what discipline and the right belief system can achieve. We are all somebody before we become moms and we all have the power to live that truth if we set our minds to it.
I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed hosting the conversation.
Do yourself a huge favor and follow Racquel on all forms of social media and her blog.

We dedicated an entire episode on the importance of self care and what it does for us as mothers when we show up for ourselves first. Talking about self care is all fine and dandy but we thought we would take it a step further and provide a list of budget friendly options for self care. With todays economy I know money is getting squeezed thinner and thinner so budget friendly options is always a win in our household for sure and just so we are on the same page here, we firmly believe that self care should not ever create financial stress because if it does, well then at that point it no longer serves as self care.
We hope that you enjoyed the tips along with the cray mom talk in between each tip to make life feel a little more normal when you are feeling not so put together.
If you are in to social media at all here are our Instagram handles where you can really get an inside look at our chaos, victories, and overall daily shenanigans.

When you want to have big goals, or even small goals but adding in the fact that we take care of tiny humans all day as well can make it feel impossible to achieve those goals. This is where learning to create a daily power list will be your saving grace when working towards those goals. The list is no more than 5 manageable and achievable tasks for the day that ultimately moves the needle forward towards that bigger goal.
Life will never be smooth sailing all the time, we know that and try to prepare for that best we can. What we cant always prepare for is the emotions that those curve balls in life leave us with. Learn to lean in and make space for all emotions when they happen, give yourself the time you need to process these emotions because then you have now given yourself the space and ability to work through solutions, and healing from what ever stirred up the chaos of emotions in the first place.
We take a deep dive into motherhood and what self care should look like, we talk about the importance of putting yourself as a mom at the top of a priority list before you are able to show up for others. We share what has worked for each of us, what we are currently doing and what hasn’t worked as well.
