Some people just do the whole community thing really well, and today's guest, Erin Kramer, is one of those people. She has been one of the foundational "mama warriors" who taught me by example how to suffer and still shine light. Erin lets people in, she has reverence for the story God is writing through their family's life, and she isn't afraid of what you might think about all of it because she knows what she values and she knows what's true. Today's convo was actually my first episode I recorded, but I saved it for today :)
On today's episode we dive into the real emotions and fears that come at the beginning of a "fight", how to shift your mindset in order to grow, and how to use that growth to shine light - not just for yourself, but for all those around you.
Professionally, Erin has been a Speech Language Pathologist for 12 years and now serves full time as Director of Gwendolyn's Gifts, the nonprofit she founded with her husband inspired by their daughter, Gwen! In 2010, she married her highschool sweetheart, Mark (who is just as awesome!). And together, they have three beautiful daughters that each have their own unique story. Erin is also a foster mom (currently on pause), adoptive mom, and special needs mom all in one.
Come hang out with me and meet my sweet and powerful friend, Erin.
