It’s Podcast Day! 🎉

In this episode I answer your questions! It was fun to hear what was on your mind and give you my thoughts. I answer questions on motherhood, marriage, podcasting and the pressure of perfectionism.

Swipe over to see the graphic I referenced in Question 1 that my amazing friend @liztaylorcreative drew for me a few years ago. I described to her how I was feeling as a mom and she captured it so well. Motherhood is definitely a juggling act and we are inevitably going to drop things sometimes, but let’s make sure we drop the things that don’t really matter so we can focus on what does. 💕

When you order before September 29th, you’ll receive some amazing pre-order gifts! Don’t miss out! Pre-order online today and head to alliworthington.com to claim your gifts.

Have I told you how much fun it is hosting a podcast? I love it! It’s so awesome to have great conversations with amazing women to share with you!

This week’s episode is with the lovely @alliworthington! 🎉

I love being part of Alli’s intern team, I learn so much from her, I’m sure you will too in our conversation today. We talk about how to stand strong as a mom, our desire for control, where our true identity lies, self-care, and more!

I hope you love this episode and that you’ll take a screenshot of the podcast while you’re listening and tag Alli and me. This will help the episode get to more moms who need it. 💕

Happy Monday! It’s a new week, we start a new mo

Happy Monday! It’s a new week, we start a new month tomorrow, and it’s also a new season for me. Last week I joined the staff of @mops_international as an Executive Leadership Coach! I’m so excited and so thankful for this opportunity!

As I reflect on the past few years, I look back and see how God has been working, even though I couldn’t always see it then.

It’s through hindsight that I’m able to connect the dots. After a season of feeling defeated and overlooked, He placed people into my life who make me better and offer me opportunities to grow. He was doing work behind the scenes to orchestrate things I couldn’t on my own. He knew the perfect timing that I did not.

Over the weekend I met with my friends from my church MOPS group and shared a devotion with them I wrote a few years ago. Here’s an excerpt:

Every new season I encounter now begs me to ask these questions: "God, what new thing do you want to do in me? What do you want to teach me?" To really know the answers, I have to look beneath the surface.

Just as a flower seed transforms and begins to grow underground where no one can see, God does the same thing in us. He’s working in us, beginning to do a new thing that we often aren’t aware of. We must slow down enough to seek Him so we don’t miss it. Even on the hard days, we must have faith that all of the changes and growing pains we experience are necessary parts of the process.

As we wait for what will spring forth during this new season, let’s trust that He’s working on something beautiful. It’s exciting to see what He’ll do next. 🌻

Here’s to learning, growing, and trusting God! His ways and His timing are truly delightful. ❤️

Confession time: Last week I was not the most patient mom. 😬 While my son was supposed to be online doing homework, I was listening to a training online. He wanted to talk and be near me and interrupted me so many times. I got frustrated and started losing my cool. Have you ever been there? (Silly me, I know you have, we’re all trying to school and parent in a pandemic!)

While this season is imperfect and inconvenient in many ways, I realized it’s also the perfect time for me to practice demonstrating patience. I jotted down five ways we can do that in this season. Hope you enjoy. 💕

“We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy, always thanking the Father.” - Colossians 1:11-12a NLT

It’s podcast day! I love this conversation I had with my friend @gingercim. We talked about how to remember God’s faithfulness, how false stories put us in bondage, and practical ways we can intentionally remember God’s faithfulness in our lives. 🎙You can find our episode whenever you listen to podcasts.
