      My heart absolutely broke for her during that video and other videos! Lord, the pain of a momma losing a child, is the worst pain and sound you will ever hear! I was in the ER with my baby years ago and years a doctor tell a momma she lost her baby and it was the most blood curdling scream I have ever heard and I will never forget! So my heart breaks for any momma that loses a child no matter how they lose them! I have one child and I can’t imagine!!

      I remember her life as a child being very abusive. She is open with that and her testimony really hit home and relieved me of guilt I had been carrying for walking away from my mom, a long time ago. I never saw her again. She died in 2002. Thank you for your honesty.

    Her voice is so soothing. It feels like a safe space, like a mama wrapping you up in her arms. And hearing her story, how much shit she went through, and how gracious and loving and kind she still is? It’s beyond inspiring. She’s just wonderful.
    As someone who had a baby at 17, I wish I’d had her videos back when I was a new mom. Especially with my child’s father also having a drug addiction and me trying to love him into sobriety. I needed someone who’d had a baby young and loved a man unwilling to help himself and who still came out it an inspiration instead of a scary statistic. I needed someone who’d make me feel like I wasn’t a tragedy waiting to happen, and when you’re a young mom, everyone makes you feel like you’re gonna fuck your kid up no matter what you do.
    Even though I’m 27 now and a law student and I’ve beaten the scary statistics and I didn’t have these videos back when I *really* needed them, hearing Mama Tot tell her story still feels like it’s healing a part of me that was broken. And it inspires me to do even more, to be more than successful- but to be kind and loving without expectation, to turn myself into a safe place for people who need it.

      You're wise beyond your years sweet girl!! I had my daughter at 16, she's now 27 and just became a mom herself. I didn't graduate college, but I wanted that for her and she's so much better and more than I ever could have expected! She graduated college, married her college boyfriend and they're both teachers and now they just had their first child. I just wanted to tell you how proud of you I am and that you're kicking butt at life!! 💪🏼❤️🫶🏼

    The trauma response of being hyper vigilant in reading the mood in the room.... every person everywhere who identifies as an "empath" feels exactly the same way. I come from generations of trauma from bipolar disorder and mental illness. I try every single day to break that cycle with my own children. It's so hard when you are trying to heal yourself too.

    I remember seeing the video of Mama Tot letting everyone know exactly WHAT and WHOM was stolen from her & her family... i bawled & i barely knew Mama Tot at the time. But thats when i started watching... little did i know not even 2 months would pass & my oldest son's daddy would die. Watching mama tot helped me be able to move along the emotions, the grief & continuing to be a mama to my boys, especially my oldest who was suffering, is still suffering. My life story is just so much like Ophelias & i relate to her immensely.
    Laura. Thank you so much for this... it was everything i needed at this time in my life...esp before the holidays. With all of my heart, I say thank you. ❤
    For the record - the youtube beauty influencer Mama Tot was disappointed by, i believe is Laura Lee. I think bc she is from Alabama as well & her personality match up (as in what ophelia described- cockiness etc).

    First I need to say Laura you did an absolute amazing job with this interview! One of the best I have seen you do! I knew I loved Mama Tot but this just confirms it! She is such a light to a dark world and I never realized I needed to heal from things of my childhood to better my adult life! I struggle with addiction and to see how much unconditional love she has for people makes me feel like I'm worthy of better! I love Laura so much and have been following her since forever! Love love.love her!

    I have followed both Laura and Ophelia since the beginning.
    I loved them before, but now I respect both of them so much more. Laura for her ability to put Ophelia at ease and Ophelia for her showing us all how to forgive and treat people w love and kindness.

    It’s so freeing hearing Ophelia talk about her life and her story. I went through 2 years of physical and mental abuse with my daughters father and the entire first year of her life was lies and manipulation and abuse and I finally had enough and cut him off completely after her first birthday. That was a month ago and we are both so happy and healthy and thriving being away from him. My mental health is so much better and I’m happier and physically healthier now. I love hearing her talk about what she’s been through because it shows me that no matter what i went through, i will always be okay in the end and so will my baby girl.

I have never heard of either of these ladies...but now I am a huge supporter of both. I had a similar home life and it has been very freeing to hear Ophelia's story...wow.

    I love listening to you both ❤ my mom was like miss Jenny, we also grew up in poverty and it was just me and her but her doors were always open for my friends and neighbour kids. I had a tough time as a teenager with being bullied and home was my safe place, but I knew growing up that it was the opposite for many of my peers. Mama tot has overcome SO much adversity and she is so inspiring. Thank you for sharing so much ❤

    Ophelia is such a wonderful lady. She has such an open and inspiring insight into life. She reminds me of my own mother. Always there and present when you need her. My mom isn’t perfect, I don’t think anyone out there is. She has made her mistakes and she allows her kids to make theirs. That’s how you learn and grow. If she can ever step in give you advice or share her experience. Even to shade you just a little from something unpleasant, she will. Love you Ophelia, God Bless you!
