ITA #26 – Can You Chase Your Dream and Be a Mom? An Interview with Jen Stanbro

If you've listened to the Inspired To Action Podcast lately, you've heard Jen Stanbro. She sings that amazing song in the outro of the show. I've gotten so many emails and questions about it, so I thought it would be perfect time to share an interview I did with Jen earlier this Fall.

She was in the midst of the hustle and bustle of raising two young children when she rather suddenly had the opportunity to record many of the songs she'd been writing since 1999. But how did she know when to take the leap of faith and when to pull back for the sake of her family?

You'll be surprised by some of the twists, turns and pauses in her journey. If you've ever had a dream that you put on hold for motherhood, you'll be inspired by and learn from Jen's story and beautiful faith.

Sidenote: Stay tuned for Pt. 2 of my Goals series later this week. Also? I redid the header of the blog, if you get a chance, I'd love it if you'd pop over to the site and let me know what you think in the comments! Also...also? You're awesome. Thanks for listening and reading!
