Confessions of a Helicopter Mom and Falling in Love with "The Sicilian Inheritance"




A Refreshing Podcast Experience

If you had told me a few months ago that I'd be sitting down for an honest and refreshing chat with Jo Piazza, best-selling author and podcast host extraordinaire, I probably wouldn't have believed you. Yet, there I was, sharing my story as a "recovering helicopter mom" on her podcast—a conversation that was as fun as it was enlightening.


Jo Piazza has a knack for creating a space where you feel heard and understood. Our discussion revolved around the challenges and transformations I've faced in my journey away from striving for "perfect" and overprotective motherhood. We covered everything from dealing with the repercussions of childhood trauma to redefining self-care and what it means to be a mother in a society that often demands unrealistic perfection.


I opened up about my own poignant story of facing a toxic childhood head-on and vowing to be a different kind of parent to my kids. With Jo's guidance, we explored the importance of healing and self-awareness, and how these elements are crucial for anyone looking to break free from the chains of their past. The conversation was not just therapeutic for me; it brought a lot of value to anyone tuning in, especially parents who feel overwhelmed by societal pressures.


Being a guest on Jo Piazza's podcast was a truly enriching experience, one that allowed me to share my story and connect with others on a meaningful level. Pairing that with the joy of reading "The Sicilian Inheritance" has been nothing short of delightful.


If you're a fan of immersive storytelling and rich cultural narratives, I highly recommend picking up a copy of her novel, "The Sicilian Inheritance." It's more than just a book; it's a journey that will leave you thinking long after you've turned the last page.


Happy listening and reading!
