Ep. 109: You Bet Your Stretch Marks


Listen Later

In our last show before we take a break for summer 2025, we chat about the final book in the M Is for Mama trilogy: You Bet Your Stretch Marks. 


I reveal where the title came from, why it’s countercultural to the common narrative about “worth it” in motherhood and flesh out what it means to have a “tiger-striped soul.”


Be sure to pre-order You Bet Your Stretch Marks (link below) for all the stories, Scripture, and lessons learned. But in the meantime, enjoy this preview + pep talk all rolled into one!
