    Ep 110 | MOTHERHOOD | Embracing Your Weaknesses as a Mom

    Motherhood has a way of exposing the places we feel weakest. The overstimulation, the overwhelm, the impatience, the pressure of feeling like you are not doing enough. All of it can leave us feeling defeated. In this episode, I’ll take you through 3 parts: 1. Identifying your weaknesses. 2. Responding to them, and 3. Walking in freedom. And if you need a place to slow down and bring those burdens to the Lord, my Journey to the Cross devotional journal is linked in the show notes.  I'm glad you're here!

    Hey Moms! One of the most powerful things you can do for your children may also be one of the quietest: praying for them.  In this episode, we are talking about the power of prayer in motherhood, why it should be our first response instead of our last resort, and how praying for and with our kids becomes a covering over their lives as they grow!

    Ep 106 | Thinking About Homeschooling? My Best Advice for the Mom of Toddlers

    If you have toddlers or preschoolers underfoot and you are feeling the pressure to figure out your homeschool plan, take a deep breath.  It is so easy to fall into the trap of buying formal curriculum and pushing reading and writing way too early. But the truth is, pushing academics before a child is ready can actually sacrifice their natural curiosity and joy for learning.
