Mothers Who Know

In this episode, we dive into Lesson 3 from the Mom Power training — "Notice, Just Notice" — exploring how we can recognize and claim the peace and power that come through Jesus Christ, even amid life's hardest circumstances. Our guest shares a raw, deeply personal testimony of surviving childhood trauma and abuse, and how she came to know the Savior's love through it all — from budding faith as a small child, to finding her voice as a young woman, to the compensatory blessings that carried her through. We talk about noticing the Spirit's quiet promptings, learning to distinguish crying from praying, and why getting to know Jesus Christ personally is the surest way to prepare for whatever lies ahead. A conversation about pain, resilience, and unshakeable hope.

Not every voice in your head is a trusted voice. In this episode, Karen Broadhead dives into Lesson Two of the Mom Power training — learning to stay in your truth by recognizing that there's only one true enemy working to distort your identity, purpose, and mission. Drawing from Rosalyn Geertsen's book For My Sisters and the Eternal Warrior principles from Like Dragons Did They Fight, this conversation explores how negative thoughts take root, how to tell the difference between the Spirit's voice and the adversary's lies, and how women can reclaim peace, confidence, and connection to their divine identity. A candid, faith-centered discussion for women looking to fight their inner battles with more clarity and hope.

In this episode, Karen unpacks Lesson 1 — "There's Only One" — exploring the three truths that can transform how you show up for the people you love: there's only one Savior, one enemy, and one you. Through honest, personal stories, this conversation offers a grounded, faith-centered approach to releasing the pressure of trying to "save" the people in your life, recognizing the enemy's tactics, and reclaiming your own peace and identity along the way. If you've ever felt overwhelmed carrying the weight of someone else's choices, this episode is an invitation to breathe, return to what's true, and find real hope in your own role.

This week we're putting it all together. Across this training we've talked about identity, purpose, and mission — but this episode gets to the heart of it with one simple, powerful question: Why are you fighting, and why don't you just give up?

We dig into why this question matters so much — it's a whole-brain question that pulls us out of a numb, "I'm fine" autopilot and into clarity about who we are and what we're actually living for. Along the way, women in the group share their own honest, often moving answers: fighting for change, for family, for eternal identity, for the simple fact that they still can.

We also talk about:

• Why we can't be "purse fighters" — just saying "stop it" isn't enough
• The idea of the sword of truth and the shield of faith
• A powerful story about bringing faith to the forefront, inspired by Elder and Sister Kearon's address to young single adults and the hymn "Let Us All Press On"
• Why remembering who we're really fighting (hint: there's only one enemy) changes everything

Whatever season of life you're in, this conversation is an invitation to pause, get honest, and remember why you're still standing in the fight.

What if the people God has placed in your life are more than coincidence — they're part of His plan to carry you through the hardest seasons?

In this episode of Mom Power Live, Karen leads an honest, heartfelt conversation about one of the most powerful lessons in the Mom Power training: isolation versus people connection. Together, a group of women share raw, real stories about the teams God led them to — and how those relationships lifted burdens they couldn't carry alone.

You'll hear about moms navigating eating disorders, adult children in residential treatment, social anxiety, and the quiet ache of feeling unseen. But more than the struggle, you'll hear what happens when women stop isolating and start letting people in.

In this episode:

• Why Satan's greatest weapon is isolation — and how connection defeats it
• How to find your "dream team" starting with Heavenly Father
• The Mom Power holy habits that create daily connection with God
• Real stories of women who were lifted by their teams in impossible seasons
• The "bowl and beans" principle for making what matters most actually happen
