17 | Motherhood, Mindset, and Making Space for What Matters Most w/ Emily Rooney

Healing Starts Here | Holistic Wellness Strategies for Lasting Transformation

In this honest and inspiring episode of Healing Starts Here, I sit down with Emily Rooney — wife, mom of seven, and founder of the Happy Organized Life blog and community. Emily shares how she built a thriving business while homeschooling, caring for a medically complex child, and navigating the ups and downs of real life.

We talk about the emotional toll of raising a child with Parkinson’s, the mindset shifts that helped her reclaim her time, and why finding creative outlets like painting can be essential for healing. Emily opens up about grief, motherhood guilt, finding joy in the small things, and how she’s learning to release control and live fully in the present.

Whether you’re walking through chronic illness, feeling stretched thin in motherhood, or simply needing encouragement that you’re not alone — this episode will encourage and uplift you.
