    May 8 2025
    Description:In this special Mother’s Day episode of Jess Ask the Podcast, Jess sits down with trauma recovery and relationship coach Cia Edwards-Wiggins to talk about motherhood from a rarely heard perspective. Cia opens up about not originally wanting children, and how becoming a mother challenged her marriage, identity, and expectations. She shares what it looks like to grow through the mental load of motherhood—especially when your partner’s presence feels flexible and yours doesn’t. If motherhood ever felt like a mirror, this episode will remind you that growth and grace can coexist.Connect With Our Guest:Felicia, known as Cia The Transparent Therapist, is a faith-focused, Christ-centered licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT), certified trauma professional (CCTP), and leadership coach. With over a decade of experience, she helps high-achieving women and leaders heal from unresolved trauma and build thriving relationships through a biblical lens. As the creator of the C.A.L.M. Framework and host of the Conscious Creative Corner podcast, Cia integrates faith, neuroscience, and psychology to empower clients to break generational cycles, restore emotional balance, and lead with confidence.Website: http://www.thetraumatransition.comwww.assurgenthealing.comSocial Media:@CiaTheTherapist (everywhere- tikok, instagram, youtube)Support the Podcast:If you love what you hear on Jess Ask The Podcast and want to help us continue bringing you inspiring and insightful content, consider supporting us!
