## Resource

What if the mom who worries most about being a good mother is actually showing how deeply she cares? Mary DeMuth shares a simple but powerful practice that helped her confront the shame and self-doubt she carried as a mother: saying out loud, “I am a good mother.” This isn't about pretending we're perfect. We all fail. We all need to apologize to our children. But there's a difference between recognizing our failures and allowing shame to convince us that we're failures. In this conversation with Kristi Clover, Mary encourages moms to recognize the difference between guilt and shame, challenge the lies that keep them awake at night, and remember that God sees the intentions of their hearts more clearly than they do.
