Don't Talk to My Friend Like That!

You’re staring at the homeschool plans you once felt so excited about… but now they just feel overwhelming. Your house is a mess, the kids are wild, and the doubt starts to creep in: “Why can’t I keep up?” “This isn’t good enough.” “I’m not good enough.” “Maybe they were right, I can’t do this.” If your daily thoughts sound more like criticism than compassion, if you’ve ever felt ashamed, defeated, or like you’re failing at the thing you care most about, you are not alone!  So many mothers talk to themselves in a way they would never speak to another adult, even though they admit with shame that they talk to their children like that to some degree.  In this week’s episode I’m going to help you recognize that voice for what it really is, a bully.  And then, we’re going to do something radical: I’m going to show you how to stand up to her.  Not with toxic positivity, but with truth, compassion, and the fierce love of a best friend. Because when you stop bullying yourself and start standing up for your own dignity and worthiness, everything shifts. You feel lighter. More capable. More connected. More like yourself again. And you begin showing up for your kids, your marriage, and your homeschool with the grace that comes from knowing who you truly are: a beloved daughter of God, who is always worth fighting for. If you’re tired of feeling heavy and hard on yourself, and you're ready to feel seen, supported, and lighter inside your own mind and heart, I’ve got a podcast episode that will speak directly to the little girl inside you who just wants a hug.
