Today's episode of the Build Your Brave podcast tackles one of the hardest truths about parenting: your healing journey doesn't guarantee your children will never struggle. Megan gets vulnerably honest about the pressure we put on ourselves as "cycle-breaking" moms and the unrealistic expectations that can leave us feeling like failures when our kids still face battles. If you've ever felt guilty because your children are struggling despite all your personal work, wondered if you're failing as a parent, or need a reality check about what breaking generational cycles actually looks like, this episode will bring both relief and clarity. Sometimes the greatest gift we can give our children isn't a pain-free life—it's walking through the pain together. 🩷 🔑 KEY TAKEAWAYS 👉🏼 Healing doesn't remove the struggle—it equips you to respond differently when struggle comes 👉🏼 Breaking chains doesn't mean your children never face battles; it means they won't face them alone 👉🏼 Your worth as a parent isn't tied to whether your children struggle or not 👉🏼 "Train up a child" means teaching them how to walk through hardship with faith, not shielding them from all pain 👉🏼 The legacy isn't a spotless record—it's giving your kids a front-row seat to watch you fight and walk in freedom 💌 YOU ARE INVITED: Don't miss the Build Your Brave Experience 2025, November 6-8 in Scottsdale, Arizona!
