Hey mama,

In today’s episode, we’re talking about realistic goals for moms who feel discouraged by comparison and overwhelmed by the pressure to “do it all.” Using the picture of a garden, I share why small, faithful steps matter more than big, flashy routines—and how God uses ordinary, daily obedience to build a life of deep faith over time. If you’ve felt behind, this episode is a reminder that seeds always come before harvest.

Writing one sentence has more in common with writing a book than never writing one. It always feels small in the beginning and the big goals seem far away. It’s easy to talk yourself out of the early attempts because they feel kind of meaningless. But every race starts with one step. Every fortune starts with a small deposit. Every book begins as one sentence.

The real question is not “What is my current position?” but rather, “What is my current trajectory?” Doing nothing builds nothing. Put yourself on the path to something better. Start small, but make sure you start.”*- james clear
