Habits Of A Mother podcast

17:16

in this episode of Habits of a Mother , I’m reflecting on the honest highs and lows from last month—through the lens of six key areas: faith, marriage, parenting, household, friendship, and business. After a hard month recovering from illness, I noticed some habits that crept in… and I’m gently replacing them with intentional, grace-filled ones. If you’ve ever felt like you’re just going through the motions in your faith, feeling distant in your marriage, yelling more than you’d like, or letting the house or business overwhelm you—you are so not alone . This episode isn’t about shame or perfection. It’s about noticing what’s not serving us and prayerfully creating new rhythms that align with the life God is calling us to. I’ll walk you through my own habits (the real and raw ones), and invite you to do the same after listening to the episode. Whether you’re a new mom, a seasoned mom, or somewhere in between—this episode will leave you feeling seen, encouraged, and equipped to move forward with grace.
