Summary
In this episode, I’m getting super real and vulnerable with you guys about the things I often quietly struggle with behind the scenes as a Christian, wife, mom, and influencer. From insecurities and fear of man to mom guilt, marriage struggles, and feeling unqualified in my faith sometimes, I wanted to remind you that no one has it all together. Social media can make us believe everyone else is perfect, but the truth is—we’re all fighting battles. I share honestly about comparison, performative Christianity, balancing motherhood with work, and how God meets us even in our weakness. My prayer is that this episode helps you feel less alone and reminds you that vulnerability, testimony, and bringing things into the light are where true freedom begins. ORDER MY BOOK!
