Episode 81 is a follow-up from episode 80’s discussion on how a mother’s weakness can bless her children. Listen to hear my personal insights gathered from personal experiences, scriptures and talks about how to view your weaknesses in a positive light. Episode Summary In my last episode, I aired an interview with Kristen Walker Smith. Kristen shared how our weaknesses as mothers can actually bless our children. I loved Kristen’s thoughts on weakness, so much so, that I decided to do some personal study on the topic of weakness. In this episode, I share a few stories from my own life about seeing weaknesses in a positive light. You’ll hear what happened when I polled my own kids about what they thought my weaknesses are. My 18-year-old son’s comments totally surprised me! I talk about some weak spots in parenting when my kids were little and how my husband and I course corrected. I also share viewing weakness in a positive light from the perspective of being a daughter. The scriptures are full of examples of people who learned that weakness is a positive thing. I share scriptures that illustrate how God uses weakness for our benefit. I found a talk and an article that were very enlightening to me. You’ll hear about a talk I read by Neal A. Maxwell (link below) that helped to remind me that having weakness is totally normal. I also share an Ensign article that sheds light on how weakness is not a sin and actually draws us closer to God (link below). Through my interview with Kristen and my study of weakness I have learned that I can view weakness in a positive light. Weakness has a purpose and through the Savior’s grace our weaknesses become strengths. Episode Links Notwithstanding My Weakness talk by Elder Neal A.
