I loved this honest and hope-filled conversation with Shelly Snead about what it really looks like to embrace authenticity, motherhood, and faith in a world of comparison.

Shelly shares her story of navigating challenges in marriage and parenting, and how she’s learned to embrace an “un-perfect” life—one where flaws and struggles become places for God’s grace to shine. We talk about the trap of comparison (especially in a social-media world), the power of gratitude, and the freedom of owning our God-given identity.

This conversation will encourage you to let go of the highlight reel and lean into the life God is writing in you—mess and all.

We talk about:✨ Why authenticity is vital in a culture of comparison✨ What it means to live an “un-perfect” life✨ The challenges and beauty of motherhood✨ Practical strategies to stop comparing and start embracing your story✨ How gratitude shifts perspective and brings contentment✨ Why praying for those we compare ourselves to changes everything✨ The beauty of imperfection and God’s grace in our weakness

Whether you’re in the thick of motherhood, wrestling with identity, or just weary of trying to measure up, this episode is an invitation to breathe, rest, and remember: God is writing a story in you worth living—just as you are.
