Postpartum Anxiety, Mom Guilt & Raising Worry-Free Kids with Kate Henderson


Listen Later

Anxiety is talked about a lot these days — but what does it really mean? And why does it feel like it’s showing up everywhere, for both moms and kids?

This week on the Gather Moms Podcast, our very own Kate Henderson steps into the expert seat. After walking through her own struggles with anxiety and helping her daughter navigate worry, Kate dove deep into research, counseling tools, and Scripture to understand what’s happening in our minds and homes.

In this honest and practical episode, Kate shares:

  • The difference between stress and clinical anxiety (and why it matters)
  • Why postpartum anxiety is just as real — and common — as postpartum depression
  • The rise of anxiety in moms and kids (with stats you need to know)
  • How anxiety shows up differently in children — and why girls are hit the hardest
  • Tools to create an “emotionally smart home” (think feelings charts, breathing exercises, calming routines)
  • The truth about genetics, guilt, and why your child’s anxiety isn’t your fault
  • Powerful Scriptures and truths to replace lies when panic sets in
  • Kate reminds us that we don’t have to stay stuck in fear or isolation. God meets us in our overwhelm, offers us His peace, and equips us to coach (not rescue) our kids through anxious moments.

    If you’ve ever felt sweaty, nervy, or paralyzed by “what ifs,” this episode will give you hope, tools, and freedom. You are not alone, mama — and healing is possible.
