Motherhood isn’t picture-perfect — and that’s okay. Here, we unpack the real, messy, beautiful side of being a mum. Join us each week for stories that heal, connect, and remind you: you’re not alone. 💕

Do you feel like you’ve tried everything — consequences, parenting books, well meaning parenting advice, crying out to God — and still feel like you’re failing? Are you walking on eggshells, never knowing what will trigger your child’s next meltdown or shutdown? Have you felt dismissed or judged by church culture when your child didn’t behave the way they “should”? Do you find yourself yelling, shutting down, or spiraling with guilt — praying that tomorrow will be different? I’m so glad you’re here. This podcast will help you regulate your emotions, reconnect with your child, and rebuild your confidence as a Christian mom — without losing control, feeling ashamed, or fixing everything. You’ll learn how to show up with peace and presence, so you can parent without guilt and finally feel like yourself again. Hey, I’m Amanda — a certified Christian life coach, mom of two neurodivergent kiddos, and former fix-it-all parenting researcher. For years, I chased every method that promised quick change. I believed if I just found the right consequence, parenting strategy, or routine, I could turn things around. But the more I tried to control, the more disconnected we became. Everything changed when I stopped parenting from fear and started anchoring in faith, emotional regulation, and connection. I let go of the pressure to fix behavior and began trusting God’s process — not just for my child, but for myself, too. Now I help moms like you shift from survival mode into a grounded, grace-led way of being that transforms everything — without changing your child. If you’re ready to parent beyond meltdowns — with tools that are rooted in faith, emotional stability, and connection — this podcast is for you. If you’re tired of parenting advice that shames you or strategies that backfire with your neurodivergent child… you’re not alone. Whether you’re raising a strong-willed kiddo, navigating sensory challenges, or questioning the parenting approach you were raised with… welcome. Grab your favorite beverage, take a deep breath, and let’s walk this road together — one calm, connected step at a time.

This is a safe space to build upon and reinforce the values of fatherhood. We'll explore the gaps between the current generation of fathers and fathers of generations past, and mature the dialogue that will close those gaps for the generations to come. Whether your passion is to be a great father or peel back the layers of why your father wasn't present in your life (physically and/or emotionally), this is for you. Let's grow through it.

Send us a text After more than 35 years of sitting on floors with babies and toddlers - and walking alongside thousands of mothers - I’ve learned something that still surprises people. The children who thrive in the first three years aren’t raised by parents who do everything “right.” They’re raised by adults who stay in sync — who notice, respond, and adjust in real time. In this final episode of the year, I’m not offering a checklist or another set of milestones to track. I’m sharing...
