From isolation to connection: A mother’s journey to community

A real talk on Motherhood: Podcast Feature with Marnie Levenson, LPCC, PMH-C

I recently had the honor of being featured on the “Camp Conversations: Parenting Edition” podcast in an episode titled From Isolation to Connection: A Mother’s Journey to Community. In this heartfelt and honest conversation, I sat down with host Dayna Haig-Conway to share how my personal and professional paths were shaped by motherhood — and how one unlikely friendship became the spark for something bigger.

This episode dives deep into:

  • The hidden loneliness of early motherhood

  • How isolation can impact our emotional well-being in the postpartum period

  • The power of connection and how small acts of support can grow into community

  • Why we need each other — and how to show up, even imperfectly


For anyone who has ever felt lonely, overwhelmed, or unsure in early motherhood (which, let’s be honest, is most of us), this conversation offers validation, encouragement, and a gentle reminder: you are not alone.

💬 “What we needed most didn’t exist — so we built it.”
This quote from the episode captures the heart of what Becoming Mothers Counseling is all about. Supporting one another through the messy, beautiful, transformative seasons of motherhood is not just part of my work — it’s personal.
