312. What Changes When Your Kids Grow Up | Lessons from a Mother of 11 | Sarah of Our Tribe of Many
Parenting doesn’t necessarily get easier as the years go on, but the demands change. In this conversation, Sarah of Our Tribe of Many shares what life looks like as a mom of 11, from toddlers to young adults, and how her perspective on motherhood has transformed along the way. She shares their process of designing a home with future generations in mind, finding confidence in the homeschooling journey, and learning to release control as her kids grow into independence. We also talk about common misconceptions about large families, how to redefine your “wins” in overwhelming seasons, and the freedom that comes from trusting your God-given instincts over the noise of the internet. Join us for this conversation full of wisdom and encouragement no matter where you are in your motherhood journey!
