8 things I've learned since becoming a mom with Mallory Riddaugh
In this episode, I sit down with my sweet friend Mallory Riddaugh—one of my go-to girls for all things motherhood—and we got real about the highs, lows, and holy chaos of being a mom. Mallory shared 8 incredible lessons she’s learned since becoming a mama (trust me, they are GOLD), and we chatted about everything from surviving the newborn days to choosing joy in the trenches. We laughed (a lot), maybe cried a little, and kept it super honest about how God has used motherhood to absolutely reshape our hearts. Whether you're eight months pregnant, holding a fussy baby, or just dreaming about motherhood one day, we hope this convo reminds you that you're not alone—and you’re doing better than you think.
