If you’ve ever felt angry, fearful, resentful, or overwhelmed as a mom, you gotta to listen to this one. I’ve been feeling all those feels lately and struggling through my own difficult parenting season, so this episode is just as much for you as it is for me. The takeaway, though? That you’re not alone in feeling those feelings and that the struggle is REAL. It’s also that God is always, always available to help, guide, listen to, and yes, stretch, us…if we let Him. So, if you’re going through a hard moment or season of parenting right now, I’m right there with you. We can do this together. We can find hope, strength, and resilience in our struggles and know that God will bring us through more refined, wise, and equipped on the other side. Let’s go.

Happy Friday, friend! This episode is one I recorded and published this past June, but wanted to republish in case you hadn’t listened or just need a gentle reminder and little pick me up today. I love and am always rooting for you. Now let’s gooooo.

Character and integrity aren’t just learned, they’re taught, and all our children have to do is listen and observe how we parent them and live our daily lives to know what those values look like. As Christian parents, we not only need to teach our children about character and integrity, but we also want them to understand how these two values connect to the bigger picture of Christianity and their role in it. If character and integrity are something you personally struggle with or struggle to teach your kids, don’t worry. Every day is a new day and in today’s episode, I share verses on what God has to say about these values and discuss how we can exhibit and teach them to our children as we as parents strive to become more like Jesus in our own lives. Let’s go.

If you find yourself comparing yourself with moms or other parents more than you’d like to admit, this episode’s for you. Comparison is a trap and, if we’re not careful, it can lead us to doubting who we are as mothers and whether or not we’re doing enough for our kids faster than Taylor Swift can write her next album. So, if that’s you, don’t feel bad…I promise you we’ve all been there and that we all still struggle with it at times. But, if you’re ready to let it go, focus on your amazingness as a mom and help other moms see the same in themselves, this episode is for you. Let’s go. P.S. Help a girl out and share with a friend!

Has anytime someone told you to “Calm down” made you feel better or did it make you feel LESS calm? That’s what I thought. While sometimes hearing those words can help, most of the time it doesn’t and the same rings true for our kids. In this episode, I’m going to tell you why saying “Calm down” doesn’t actually have the effect we want it to, the message our kids may actually be hearing, instead, and how slightly changing our delivery can make a huge difference in how we respond to and connect with our kids.
