On today’s episode, I’m super excited to interview one of our newer mentor mamas, Michelle Lebeau.

On this episode, we are doing something different! Many of you have told me that I should be interviewed, that I should share my story with all of you! Though that makes me a little nervous because my story is messy, I have agreed to do it! So for this final episode of our first season, Shannon Cunningham will be interviewing me! I am pretty much going to talk about my failed life as a super-Christian. I am going to talk about being in an abusive relationship, about doing the worst cardinal sin and divorcing a pastor, about how through those I began to actually understand what it means that God loves me. So if you have ever felt like a Christian failure or you just want to know more about my story, I invite you to listen in and be encouraged!

On this episode, I’ll be speaking with Rechelle Nau, one of the leaders of Community Bible Study here in La Jolla. Rechelle is an incredible mama, but becoming a mom has rocked her world and challenged her faith. I can’t wait to share this powerful story with you ladies. When I recorded her, I sat in our studio just crying. So get ready, ladies, for a powerful testimony.

On this episode, I’ll be speaking with my friend and amazing mom, Jen Foss. Jen has 3 boys, ages 7, 5, and 3 and she is going to share with us about parenting boys and also share how she has learned to rely on the Lord to overcome the burdens of stress and anxiety in her life. Whether you have boys or not or whether you struggle with anxiety or, are a much better person than me and are always peaceful and calm, I know you will find encouragement today. So listen in to Jen’s story, and be encouraged!

So it’s crazy that this gal, who looks so put together, has such a backstory. I was honestly shocked when she started sharing it with me. Jenny experienced physical abuse from her own father and because abuse seemed like normal to her, from a boyfriend as well. It’s a rough story, and we get into some tears, but God is faithful!

On this episode, I’ll be speaking with Megyn Caston, who founded the ministry Marriage 365 with her husband Casey.

If you have ever struggled with needed to be in control—which really, ladies, who hasn’t?—then listen in to my conversation with Meygan and be encouraged!
