Come listen to my friend Hannah talk about her goal of spreading her message of motherhood being a relationship.  Women often get bogged down with thinking motherhood is cleaning the house or other things, which negatively affects their views of motherhood.  Hannah has tips for us to think differently and improve our relationships with our children.

We can create a home wherever we are! 

I'm talking with my friend Sarah today about the worst day of her life.  She had a traumatic day where she was rushed to the hospital and gave birth to her twin girls in July, when they weren't due until October.  One of her twins survived after 3 months in the ICU and the other one passed after a few hours.  This tragedy has shaped Sarah into who she is today and she discusses her process of sorting through her grief.
