Mother’s Day can bring up so many emotions when you no longer have your mom.

In this special 2 B’s in a Pod conversation, my dear friend Binu Dhindsa and I open up about being part of a club no one ever wants to join…the club of experiencing life, and especially Mother’s Day, without your mom here in human form.

Together, we share the grief, the tears, the anger, the memories, the signs, the love, and the meaningful ways we’ve learned to honour our mothers while also nurturing ourselves.

This is an honest, compassionate conversation for any woman who feels the ache of missing Mom this Mother’s Day.

Our hope is that this episode helps you process your emotions, feel less alone, and gently find your own way through the day.

And if you know someone who may need this conversation, please share it with her.

Do you keep telling yourself that once life calms down, you’ll finally focus on yourself and the next chapter you really want?

Once there’s more time.

Once people need you less.

Once things feel less overwhelming.

Then you’ll write the book, get healthy, start the business, pursue the dream, or make the change.

The reality is that life doesn’t magically settle down in midlife, it simply changes shape.

Between aging parents, adult children, grief, health issues, work responsibilities, emotional labour, and the general unpredictability of life, many women find themselves waiting for a “perfect season” that never fully arrives.

In this episode of She Flourishes, Brenda shares an honest conversation about why waiting for the right time can quietly keep us stuck, and why meaningful forward movement is still possible even when life feels messy, full, and far from ideal.

Drawing from what she is witnessing inside her Meant for More coaching program where women are writing books, launching businesses, creating passion projects, and stepping into new dreams while simultaneously navigating very real life challenges, Brenda offers a refreshing reminder that progress in midlife is rarely linear.

Messy progress is still progress.

Brenda also shares a personal windsurfing story and metaphor about learning to adjust to changing conditions instead of waiting for perfect wind. It’s a powerful reminder that we can keep moving forward even when circumstances shift.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, discouraged, or like now just isn’t the time, this episode will help you shift out of waiting mode and back into meaningful momentum.

In this episode:

-why women often postpone their goals and dreams in midlife

-the hidden all-or-nothing thinking that keeps us stuck

-why messy progress is still meaningful progress

-how to keep moving forward when life feels overwhelming

-a simple mindset shift to help you stop waiting for the perfect time

Today we’re celebrating Episode 150 and it’s a powerful one.

After a short break, I’m back with 5 life-changing lessons inspired by the Artemis II mission to the moon. This isn’t about space, it’s about what’s possible for YOU.

If you’ve ever wondered if it’s too late, felt stuck waiting for the “right time,” or are craving more meaning, joy, and purpose… this episode is your reminder:

- It’s not too late

- You don’t need to be perfect

- And you are meant for more

We’ll explore awe, midlife possibility, human connection, and why the most meaningful moments in life have nothing to do with achievement, and everything to do with love.
