Parenting is one of the hardest jobs you’ll ever take on—and if you’ve ever thought “am I doing this wrong?” you’re not alone. In this episode, we’re talking about the reality of raising kids while also doing the deep personal work of breaking cycles, letting go of perfection, and teaching our children resilience.
From navigating the messy middle years (ages 7–10) to dealing with confidence dips, complaints, and those mirror-like moments where you see yourself reflected back in your child, we open up about the challenges—and the opportunities—that come with motherhood. You’ll hear honest stories, laughter, and encouragement for letting go of the Pinterest-perfect ideal and embracing parenting as preparation, not protection.
Tune in as we share the hard truths and hopeful perspectives every mom needs to hear: you’re not failing—it’s just really, really hard.
