    Have You Lost Yourself in Motherhood? Finding Your Identity in Christ with Dr. Heather Curtis

    Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered, "Who am I now?" Motherhood changes us in beautiful ways—but somewhere between raising children, caring for everyone else, and trying to follow Jesus faithfully, many women begin to lose sight of who God created them to be. In this encouraging conversation, I sit down with chiropractor, entrepreneur, homeschool mom, and founder of Healthy Made Easy, Dr. Heather Curtis, to talk about what it really means to follow Christ without erasing yourself. Heather shares her powerful testimony of finding Jesus after reaching a point of hopelessness, how God faithfully carried her through seasons of business ownership, homeschooling, and motherhood, and the life-changing difference between dying to self and losing yourself. Together we discuss: What Scripture actually means when it tells us to "die to self"Why so many Christian moms lose their identity in motherhoodHow to care for yourself without guiltTeaching your children to know Jesus through everyday lifeFinding your identity by first knowing who God isPractical ways to build faith into your homeWhy faithfulness is found in small, ordinary momentsIf you've been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of who you are anymore, this conversation is a reminder that God never intended for you to disappear in motherhood. He created you to faithfully steward your heart, your home, and your relationship with Him. You don't have to choose between serving your family and becoming the woman God created you to be.

    When Motherhood Feels Overwhelming: The Biblical Practice of Selah

    Do you ever feel so overwhelmed that you struggle to respond to your children with patience? As Christian moms, we want to be a safe place for our children—a place where they feel seen, heard, and loved. But when we're exhausted, overstimulated, and carrying the weight of work, family, responsibilities, and everyday stress, it's easy to react instead of respond. In this episode of Miracles in the Madness, Ashton explores the biblical word Selah found throughout the Psalms and how this simple invitation to pause, reflect, and rest can transform our parenting, faith, and emotional health. Through personal stories and practical encouragement, you'll learn why intentional moments of peace matter, how emotional regulation impacts your relationship with your children, and simple ways to create space for God's presence in the middle of a busy day. If you've been feeling stretched thin, overstimulated, or struggling to find peace in motherhood, this episode will remind you that sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is pause, breathe, and rest in God's presence.

    When God Says "This Isn't About You" | Trusting God's Plan Through Foster Care, Adoption & Motherhood with Marcy Bursac

    Have you ever felt like God called you to something... and then the waiting became harder than you ever imagined? In this powerful Season 4 premiere of Miracles in the Madness, Ashton sits down with author, speaker, podcaster, and adoption advocate Marcy Bursac to talk about faith, obedience, Christian motherhood, foster care, adoption, and trusting God when life doesn't go according to plan. Marcy shares her incredible testimony—from writing letters to God as a teenager, to discovering a passion for adoption, to navigating an emotional 18-month journey to adopt her two children through foster care. During one of her darkest moments, exhausted and overwhelmed by uncertainty, she felt God speak four words that changed everything: "This isn't about you." Together, Ashton and Marcy discuss what it means to trust God when you can't see the outcome, how faith sustains us in long seasons of waiting, the importance of Christian community, and why obedience often begins with simply taking the next step. Whether you're a Christian mom navigating uncertainty, waiting on God for answers, considering foster care or adoption, or simply longing to grow deeper in your faith, this conversation will encourage you to keep trusting the God who sees the bigger picture.
