They’ve called me hysterical. They’ve accused me of having a “scorched earth policy.” And most recently, they tried to brand me with “scorched earth hysterics.” But what the world labels as hysteria is often survival.

In this episode, I reclaim the words that were meant to silence me. From the lawsuit that nearly broke me, to the red-flag radar that comes with living with CPTSD, to the online harassment that keeps resurfacing, I’m pulling it all into the light. Because being loud and assertive doesn’t make me dangerous. It makes me someone who isn’t afraid to use her voice when one is needed.

Together, we’ll dig into how trauma responses are mislabeled, how dismissal costs survivors their safety, and how what others call hysteria can actually be one of our greatest strengths.

This is not destruction, it’s survival. This is Scorched Earth Hysterics.

In this deeply personal episode, Samantha Richardson pulls back the curtain on her journey - from being the “too much” kid raised in chaos, to surviving childhood abuse and the loss of her first daughter, to building Living Richardson in the middle of trauma, to fighting a two-year lawsuit that left lasting scars.

Sam shares how her voice has carried her through survival, why storytelling became her lifeline, and how it grew into advocacy through The Silent Mother Project. Raw, unfiltered, and unapologetically honest - this is the story behind Living Richardson.

What if healing doesn’t feel like peace, but like grief?

In this raw and unfiltered episode, Sam opens up about what it really looks like to heal while mothering. From losing old identities to outgrowing relationships that only valued her performance, she explores the quiet heartbreak of becoming someone new, and the surprising joy she found in the middle of it all.

This is for the mothers healing in silence. The women rediscovering themselves in the stillness. The ones who are grieving their old selves while slowly, painfully, beautifully growing into someone more grounded, more present, more whole.

Sam also shares the truth about being a stay-at-home mom for ten years and what it means now that her house is quiet, and the noise she’s left to face within herself.

And for those who resonated with this episode, Sam introduces The Silent Mother Project, a nonprofit and growing community for mothers carrying invisible grief and untold stories. Because no mother should have to heal alone.
