Description

Mother of ten, blogger, author, and one of my real life friends, Abbie from M is for Mama, is back on the podcast chatting with me about being an intentional mother in an increasingly frantic culture. As mothers, there are so many negative messages coming at us from all directions highlighting the burdens of motherhood without offering us hope or direction. Abbie’s countercultural message of embracing motherhood as a gift and calling from God is a breath of fresh air. Join us as we highlight many of the mindset shifts that have given us freedom and joy in our own journeys as mothers of many. In this episode, we cover: All about Abbie’s 45 day trip to Europe with her 10 kids Feeling less alone in motherhood and moving forward out of the difficult places Finding freedom from the shame of not being able to keep up with everything on your plate Shifting your mindset around being interrupted by kids when trying to get things done Adjusting your expectations about what your house should look like Taking appropriate responsibility in parenting without succumbing to fear and control Keeping perspective about your capacity in different seasons of motherhood Avoiding the trap of comparing yourself to what everyone else is doing View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.
