Have you ever felt a quiet dissatisfaction in motherhood—even though you deeply love your kids? Like you’re doing all the “right” things, but something still feels off?

In this episode, we’re talking about how using your God-given gifts, passions, and wiring in motherhood can lead to more joy, purpose, and growth—for you and your kids.

I share a personal story about a simple conversation with a friend that helped me realize how many expectations I’d absorbed about what a “good mom” or “good stay-at-home mom” should look like—and how often I was trying to mold myself into something that wasn’t actually me.

Instead of asking, What should I be doing? I began asking a better question: How did God create me—and how can that show up in my motherhood?

In this episode, we explore:

• Why dissatisfaction in motherhood isn’t always a heart issue—it’s often a misalignment issue

• How your gifts didn’t disappear when you became a mom

• Simple questions to help you reconnect with what makes you feel alive

• Practical ways to bring your strengths, interests, and passions into how you spend time with your kids

This isn’t about adding more to your plate. It’s about letting motherhood look a little more like you.

• What do I genuinely enjoy and feel energized by?

• Am I currently incorporating those things into my time with my kids—even in small ways?

• What’s one thing I could try this week that would be life-giving for me and fun for them?

If you’ve ever thought, “I know I need community… but how do I actually build it?”—this episode is for you.

In Part 2 of our conversation on why motherhood feels so hard, we’re getting practical. I’m sharing what I’ve learned from building community later in life—through infertility, postpartum depression, awkward attempts, short-lived friendships, and finally, deep, aligned relationships that truly feel life-giving.

If you’re a Christian mom craving real friendship, prayer, and women to actually do life with, this episode will help you take a simple, doable next step.

• Why community doesn’t usually happen overnight

• How infertility and motherhood revealed my deep need for connection

• The role isolation played in my postpartum experience

• Why praying for community actually matters

• How to put yourself out there (even if you’re introverted)

• Simple ways to take initiative in conversations

• How to keep friendships light, natural, and pressure-free

• Why consistency matters more than personality

• What to do if the community you want doesn’t exist yet

• How God uses the process of building community to shape and grow you

God never designed you to do life or motherhood alone—and He wants to bless you with the community you’re praying for. But building it often requires courage, patience, and one small step at a time.

What’s one step you’ll take this week to build the community you want?

• Reaching out to a friend you already have

• Following up with a mom you’ve met recently

• Putting yourself in a position to meet someone new

Choose one small, simple action—and do it.

Why does motherhood feel so overwhelming—even when you love your kids and are doing everything “right”?

In this episode, we uncover a deeper reason modern motherhood feels heavier than ever. It’s not because you’re failing, broken, or doing something wrong—it’s because motherhood was never meant to be done alone.

We explore how women lived and mothered in biblical times, why community was central to emotional and spiritual health, and how isolation is impacting modern moms’ mental health, nervous systems, and faith. If you’ve felt lonely, burnt out, resentful, or spiritually attacked in motherhood, this episode will bring clarity, relief, and hope.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why motherhood feels harder now than in previous generations

• How women lived and raised children in biblical times

• The role of community in emotional and spiritual resilience

• Why isolation amplifies anxiety and burnout

• How modern motherhood became a solo mission

• Why struggling doesn’t mean you’re failing

• Simple steps you can take to move toward real community

Key takeaway:
You were never meant to mother alone—and many of the things you’re trying to fix internally may actually be healed through connection.

Reflection question:
Where might God be inviting you to stop carrying motherhood alone and take one step toward community?

So many Christian moms are doing all the right things — stopping unhealthy behaviors, showing up, trying harder — and yet still feel stuck, exhausted, and disconnected on the inside.

In this episode, we’re talking about why stopping a behavior doesn’t always lead to freedom… and what real, lasting change actually looks like in everyday life and motherhood.

This conversation is for the woman who’s done the work on the surface — but knows there’s still something deeper God is inviting her into.

• Why behavior modification alone doesn’t create transformation

• How unhealed patterns can stay hidden until pressure (hello, motherhood) brings them to the surface

• The difference between managing symptoms and renewing your mind

• Why discipline without healing often leads to new cycles, not freedom

• How shame and condemnation keep us stuck — and what to do instead

• A real-life, step-by-step example of how to trace a pattern back to its root

• What it looks like to partner with God in both authority and process

• Why slow renewal doesn’t mean you’re failing — it means you’re growing

You can stop a behavior and still be bound.
But when your beliefs change, your life follows.

Real change isn’t about trying harder, being more disciplined, or fixing yourself.
It’s about allowing God to transform you from the inside out — patiently, honestly, and over time.

• What pattern, behavior, or mindset keeps repeating in my life — even when I want it to stop?

• What emotion usually sits underneath it?

• What am I believing about myself, God, or control when this shows up?

• Where might this belief have started?

• What would it look like to invite God into the root instead of just managing the surface?

If you’ve ever caught yourself in the cycle of, “I should know better. What’s wrong with me?” ....then this episode is for you.

As a Christian mom, you want to grow. You want to change patterns. You want to heal and move forward. But instead of responding to your struggles with grace, you may be responding with shame, self-condemnation, and harsh inner dialogue—and wondering why nothing seems to stick.

In this short but powerful episode, I share a mindset shift that has made a huge difference in my own transformation:
choosing curiosity instead of condemnation.

Over the past week, I stopped shaming myself for my reactions and patterns and started getting curious about them—and what I uncovered was eye-opening. What looked like surface-level “failures” were actually connected to a much deeper root issue of control. And once I could see that clearly, I could finally stop treating symptoms and start addressing the real issue.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why self-condemnation keeps you stuck in the same cycles

• How curiosity creates safety and clarity instead of shame

• Why behavior change won’t last if you never address the deeper root

• How this approach leads to real, lasting transformation—not just temporary fixes

If you’re tired of feeling frustrated with yourself and ready to stop asking “What’s wrong with me?”—this conversation will gently shift how you see yourself, your struggles, and your healing journey.

If you’re ready to start renewing your mind in a practical, grace-filled way, I created a free Mind Renewal Guide for Moms to help you identify thought patterns, respond with curiosity, and begin creating real change—without shame.

You are not broken. You are becoming—and curiosity is often the doorway to healing. 💛

I’m getting really honest in this episode.

I’ve picked words of the year before—but I’ve never really slowed down, reflected, or dug back the way I did this time. And honestly? I didn’t expect it to impact me the way it did.

In this episode, I walk you through the exact word of the year exercise I did myself. Not the polished version. Not the “quick prayer and move on” version. The real one—where I looked at what I walked through this past year, what stretched me, where I grew, and what I’m craving for the year ahead.

This wasn’t about choosing a word that sounds good.
It was about choosing a word that actually grounds how I live—especially in the chaos, pressure, and mental load of motherhood.

As I share my own process, you’ll be invited to walk through it too, including:

• Reflecting on the past year without getting stuck or spiraling

• Naming what you’ve carried, survived, and grown through

• Getting honest about what you actually want for the year ahead

• Asking God for a word that’s Spirit-led—not performance-driven

• Choosing a word that becomes a place to return to, not another thing to manage

This exercise surprised me. The word I landed on wasn’t what I expected—it wasn’t about doing more or fixing more. It was about presence. And that’s how I knew it mattered.

If you’ve ever felt like your days are getting away from you, or like life feels noisy and scattered, I hope this episode reminds you that you’re allowed to slow down, reflect, and choose how you want to live.

If you want to walk through this process for yourself without overthinking it, I created a simple, guided reflection you can download and use on your own.

If you’re anything like me, presence doesn’t come naturally — productivity does.

During the holidays especially, my instinct is to fix, plan, research, and optimize. But I’ve realized that constantly doingcan quietly pull me away from the moments that matter most.

In this episode, I’m sharing why presence feels so hard for me, and the simple, tangible things I’m doing this Christmas week to choose presence over productivity — imperfectly, but intentionally.

Nothing fancy. Just real-life shifts that are creating more peace, connection, and togetherness in our home.

• Why presence can feel uncomfortable or anxiety-producing
• How productivity can become a coping mechanism
• The phone boundary I’m using this week
• Simple, low-stress ideas to create connection
• How we’re prioritizing marriage and rest

This episode is Part 2 of our vision series — and this is the step that makes everything practical, simple, and part of your real everyday life.

In Part 1 (the previous episode), you wrote the full, expanded vision for your life as a Christian mom — the detailed picture of who you want to become, how you want to feel, and what you want your daily experience to look like.

Today, we’re taking that long-form vision and turning it into a short, powerful, 1–2 sentence vision statement you can actually use every single morning.

This is the statement that becomes the heartbeat of your morning routine (Episode 4) — the thing that helps you stay grounded, focused, emotionally steady, and aligned with the woman you’re becoming.

If you want a vision practice that’s sustainable, doable, and transformational, this is the episode that will teach you exactly how to create it.

• How to take your longer vision and pull out the core themes

• How to identify the 3 “power words” that reflect who you’re becoming

• Why certain words motivate you and others feel triggering or heavy

• How to use ChatGPT (yes, really) to refine your language and identity traits

• How to write a 1–2 sentence vision statement in present, positive, personal language

• How to use your statement daily to support emotional steadiness, clarity, and purpose

• How this one small practice helps shift your mindset and identity over time

This is the step that makes vision livable, not just inspirational.

You’ll walk through these steps inside the episode:

1. Revisit your full vision
Look for repeating themes and the areas most important to you right now.

2. Identify your 3 “power words”
Choose identity traits that make you feel motivated, grounded, or excited — not corrected or ashamed.

3. Use AI (optional) to expand your language
Get clearer, more descriptive identity phrases that actually resonate.

4. Write your 1–2 sentence statement
Present tense. Personal. Positive. Short enough to memorize.This becomes the anchor you start your day with.

5. Put it somewhere you’ll see every day
Mirror, journal, phone, planner — anywhere you can’t ignore it.

Your short vision statement helps:

• calm emotional reactivity

• activate the logical, grounded part of your brain

• reinforce identity-based change

• rewire your brain through repetition

• keep you focused on where you're going — not where you’ve been

It’s the bridge between who you are and who you’re becoming.

If you missed the previous episode, go back and write your full vision first — everything in today’s episode builds on that work.
