For years, I tried to fix what was hurting my child by offering advice, solutions, even ultimatums. But none of it worked. It only built walls. In this episode, I share what it’s looked like to lay down control and choose presence instead. It’s raw, honest, and rooted in the belief that our greatest purpose as parents isn’t to fix it’s to be a faithful, grace-filled presence in the middle of the mess. You can find the journal prompts mentioned I've been working through here.
