In this episode of Similarly Different, I sit down with Mariah — creator, mental health advocate, and familiar face from Netflix’s The Ultimatum — for a raw conversation about mother wounds, abandonment, and rebuilding your sense of self.Mariah opens up about growing up in and out of homeless shelters, being separated from her mom at eight years old, and how that shaped her identity, relationships, and sense of safety. We talk about codependency, chasing love through romantic partners, and what it really looks like to start healing patterns that began in childhood.We also dive into her journey from social media marketing and reality TV to becoming a voice for mental health online, navigating therapy when it isn’t always accessible, and dreaming up a future “healing house” for women and families who need what she never had.✨ From abandonment and survival mode to honesty, healing, and vision — this is Mariah’s story.💬 We discuss:• Growing up without her mom & navigating the “mother wound”• How abandonment, depression & anxiety showed up in her teens and 20s• Homeless shelters, generational trauma & seeing the “humanness” in our parents• Why talk therapy wasn’t enough — and her interest in somatic & EMDR work• Journaling, video diaries, nature & nervous system tools that actually helped• Dating after trauma, finding her voice, and no longer shrinking herself• Her dream to create a beautiful, non-sterile “healing house” for women & youth• Giving ourselves permission to reinvent as many times as we need to🔔 Support the show:✔️ Subscribe for more honest, unfiltered conversations✔️ Comment your biggest takeaway — we read them all✔️ Leave a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating — it truly helps more people find us✔️ Share this with someone who’s healing their inner child or mother wound📲 Connect with Us:Instagram: @similarlydifferentpodTikTok: @similarlydifferentSubmit a question: https://www.youandmemedia.co/similarlydifferent🤳 Connect with Mariah:Instagram: @remnantsofriahProject: Healing Is Hard#SimilarlyDifferentPodcast #TheUltimatum #MariahUltimatum #MotherWound #AbandonmentHealing #InnerChildHealing #MentalHealthMatters #GenerationalTrauma #FaithJourney #HealingJourney #WomenInHealing
