Welcome to Mothering in the Trenches!

Do you find yourself battling against overwhelm, exhaustion, anxiety, burnout, depression, or despair? Do you regularly beat yourself up over “losing it” with your kids? Wish you could shake the feeling that you’re failing as a mother? Want to finally wake up as the mom you so desperately want to be?

I’m so glad you’re here, mama. This podcast will help you address what you’re battling against at the source so that you can become the thriving, Christlike mom you long to be.

Hi, I’m Kristen: a wife, mother, Jesus-lover, and author of the book Mothering on Empty: How Moms Like You Found God’s Joy. I too have said “yes” in response to each of the questions I just asked above.

For years I struggled - as a mom, as a wife, and as a person. I blamed myself for everything that was “wrong” in my life - my children’s tantrums, the dysfunction in my marriage, and my inability to “get it together” emotionally.

Finally, slowly, God began to show me that it wasn’t my fault - that the hurdles I felt surrounded by weren’t a result of “character flaws”, “lack of faith” or “not trying hard enough”. He helped me uncover root causes of my struggles and began to bring about healing and wholeness from the inside out.

As a result, He’s given me a newfound understanding of and passion for spiritual wellness. By His grace, He’s revealed how the health of my spirit impacts, and is influenced by, all the other aspects of my life & being. And now, I’m here to share what I’ve learned with you!

If you’re ready to gain insight into:

why you seem to keep hitting the same brick walls;

where your debilitating thoughts and feelings are actually stemming from;

and how to start experiencing roots-deep transformation in your motherhood,

then you’ve come to the right place.

Grab your boxing gloves, mama. It’s time to ditch defeat and take back what the Enemy’s stolen. Let’s reclaim your spirit’s health and get you on the path to the kind of victorious, fruitful motherhood our Heavenly Father wants for you!
