Episode description

Maybe you don’t struggle with the desire to be a perfect mom, but you want to be a good mom, and you’re beating yourself up with negative thoughts every time you “fail.”

Perhaps you feel like you could do better, that you’re not doing enough, that you’re failing in all the ways, or your previous mistakes are irredeemable.

Mamas struggle with carrying the weight and responsibility of loving, teaching, and caring for our kids, and we desire to do the best possible job.

Today, we’re talking about getting unstuck from thinking you’re a bad mom and must be the best, most awesome, most perfect mom for your kids, so instead, you can be the Jesus-expression of you in the world.

In this episode, we’re going to break down:

All The Unhealthy Thoughts swirling in your head about motherhood
And how I become unstuck from believing I was a terrible mother with some principles and spiritual practices that helped me.

Key Quotes

No, you’re not perfect. And yes, you can grow and thrive and live light + free.
Can we agree that beating up our hearts, rehearsing all the ways we’re failing, and promising to be a better mom tomorrow are not good for our hearts?
Your God wants you free and light.
His burden is light and His yoke is easy. Will you take it?
