    What If Faithfulness Doesn’t Feel Like It’s Working?

    This week is an honest conversation.   After being up all night testing my abilities to stay up for an extra nursing shift, I sat down behind the microphone exhausted, emotional, and asking questions I know many women surely wrestle with.   How do you balance work, business, motherhood, marriage, ministry… and still have something left to give?   What do you do when you’re trying to walk in obedience, but you’re waiting to see the fruit?   In this episode, I’m sharing my heart about financial pressure, making difficult decisions for my family, learning to trust God’s timing, and why I’m choosing to be more present with my boys, even in the middle of a busy season. I also open up about my lifelong survival mindset and my tendency to measure everything by its return on investment, and what happens when faith asks us to keep planting seeds without seeing the harvest yet.   hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone.   Whether you’re a Christian mom, entrepreneur, homemaker, or simply someone trying to follow God one faithful step at a time, I pray this episode encourages you to keep showing up, even when the results aren’t visible yet.   Created.

    When the power goes out | Lessons from the storm

    This week I’m sharing what it was like to spend three (plus) days without power after the storms rolled through Southeast Michigan, and how an unexpected inconvenience became a reminder of what really matters. From melting freezers, broken fences, and changing plans to slowing down and trusting God, we’re talking about finding gratitude in the middle of the chaos, embracing the unexpected, and discovering that sometimes the things we lose for a little while help us appreciate what we’ve had all along. If you’ve ever dealt with a power outage, a setback, or a season where life felt turned upside down, this conversation is for you. Whether you’re here for faith, motherhood, homesteading, or simply encouragement for everyday life, I hope this episode reminds you that even after the darkest storms, the light always returns.   www.staceywestbrook.com

    Is It Spiritual Warfare… or Is It Your Hormones

    Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Am I under spiritual attack… or am I just hormonal?” Many of us have days where our emotions feel overwhelming. Maybe we assume we’re facing spiritual warfare, when in reality our bodies are exhausted, stressed, overwhelmed, or simply responding to the way God designed them. In this episode of the Multipurpose Mom Podcast, Stacey shares a candid look at a frustrating week that left her emotionally drained after technical issues, unexpected setbacks, and a lot of chaos in between. Through that experience, she explores an important question many Christian women rarely ask: How do we discern the difference between a spiritual battle and normal hormonal or emotional fluctuations? God created us as whole people. Body, mind, and spirit. Our hormones, sleep, nutrition, stress levels, and emotions all work together, and learning to recognize those patterns can help us respond with wisdom instead of reacting in the moment. In this episode, you’ll navigate: Why every difficult day isn't spiritual warfare. How hormones, stress, and exhaustion can affect your emotions. Simple questions to ask before assuming the worst. Why prayer and protien can work hand in hand. Learning to grow in biblical discernment without dismissing either your faith or your body’s natural rhythms. Whether you’re navigating motherhood, marriage, homeschooling, ministry, work, or simply feeling emotionally overwhelmed, this conversation is a reminder that God intentionally created every part of you. Sometimes the answer is deeper prayer. Sometimes it’s rest, nourishing your body, and extending yourself a little grace. More often than not, it’s both.

    The Shirt in the closet: What if you're afraid to wear Gods grace

    Have you ever had a shirt hanging in your closet that you never wear? Maybe you’re afraid it won’t fit. Maybe you’re worried you’ll ruin it. Or maybe you’re afraid it will actually look good on you, and stepping into that kind of confidence feels uncomfortable. This week, we’re talking about how many of us treat Jesus the same way. We believe in Him. We’re drawn to Him. Yet we often keep His grace hanging safely in the closet instead of putting it on and walking in the freedom He offers. Together we’ll explore what Scripture says about being clothed in righteousness, overcoming feelings of unworthiness, and embracing our identity in Christ. If you’ve been waiting until you’re “good enough” before fully surrendering to Jesus, this episode is for you. My challenge for you this week: Take Jesus off the hanger. Open your Bible, whisper a prayer, and take one step toward the freedom, confidence, and purpose He has already prepared for you. If this episode blessed you, please share it with someone. www.staceywestbrook.com
