On today's emotional and heartfelt episode, I am sharing the lessons that I have learned, the wisdom that has been passed down from women who have gone before me in motherhood while also sharing the mistakes that I've made in my home.

I talk about tuning into our children's emotional needs, my tendency to go from 0 to 100 with frustration and how I'm working through that.

I discuss how our responses as parents help to mold our children and why the way that we talk to and about them (even when they're not around) is so important.

Mommas, parenthood is a marathon, not a sprint. We will grow weary if we try to arrive, rather than allowing God to prune and mold us as we walk in the day-to-day of motherhood. Let's do this together.
