Have you ever walked through a season that felt uncomfortable or confusing, where things you once relied on began to fall away?

In this episode, I am joined by Landry Bowers as we talk about spiritual pruning and why it is not a punishment, but a loving part of how God grows us. Just like a gardener prunes a plant so it can thrive, God removes what no longer serves us to make room for deeper growth and greater blessing.

We look at biblical examples, including the Israelites’ journey, to remind us that discomfort often comes before breakthrough and that trusting God in pruning seasons is essential to our faith.

If you are in a season where things feel stretched, uncertain, or hard to understand, this conversation will encourage you to trust that God is working, even when it does not feel easy.

Key Takeaways

• Spiritual pruning leads to growth and renewal

• Discomfort often comes before blessing

• Pruning is a lifelong part of following God

• Trusting God helps prepare us for what is next

In this episode, author and speaker Pamela Wagner-Good shares her powerful journey of healing from childhood trauma and learning to mother from a place of worthiness instead of perfection. Pamela opens up about her early wounds, how they shaped her identity, and how Christ brought restoration into her life and home.

We talk about how trauma impacts motherhood, why so many women stay stuck in survival mode, and what it looks like to slow down, release perfection, and make space for joy again. Pamela’s story is a reminder that healing is possible, and that God can rewrite even the hardest parts of our stories.

In this episode we cover:

• How childhood trauma affects the way we parent

• Breaking free from the pressure to be “the perfect mom”

• Moving from survival mode to intentional, joy filled motherhood

• How spending time with God brings real healing and identity

• The freedom that comes from knowing your worth in Christ

This is a deeply encouraging conversation for any mom longing for peace, healing, and a more connected motherhood.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by someone whose work feels both timely and deeply needed — Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and eating disorder specialist, Chantia Sturman. She’s the founder of Darling, Arise, a powerful self-paced course designed to help moms raise confident daughters who feel at peace with food and at home in their bodies.

Chantia has spent years walking with women and girls through healing — from IOP and PHP levels of care, to outpatient therapy, to nearly three years serving in schools. She brings wisdom from every stage of the journey, and she delivers it with a calm strength that mothers will feel the moment she speaks.

In this conversation, we talk about:

• What daughters actually need from us in order to develop a healthy relationship with food and identity
• How to speak truth into our girls without making their bodies the focus
• Subtle ways diet culture sneaks into Christian homes — and how to gently guard against it
• How God invites us to root our worth in who He says we are, not how we appear
• Practical tools you can start using in your home today
• And how moms can heal their own relationship with food and body so they can model freedom for their daughters

Chantia’s mission is simple and so aligned with our heart here: to help families build homes where identity, purpose, and God-given worth run deeper than appearance. Through therapy, education, and compassionate guidance, she equips moms with the tools they need to raise girls who walk confidently in who God made them to be.

This episode is gentle, rich, and full of the kind of truth that stays with you. Whether you’re raising daughters or simply wanting to heal parts of your own story, you will feel encouraged, seen, and strengthened.

Grab a cup of something warm, settle in, and join us for this beautiful and important conversation.

In this episode of The Faith-Full Mama, I sit down with my very own life coach, Emily Tomasetti, for a powerful live coaching session on setting healthy boundaries with your child.

Together, we dig deep into the thoughts behind why we do the things we do in motherhood, and Emily walks me through how to identify those beliefs, shift them, and journal through them in a way that brings clarity and freedom.

This conversation is both practical and eye-opening — you’ll walk away with tools to recognize negative thought patterns, replace them with truth, and begin setting boundaries that nurture both you and your children.

If you’ve ever struggled with mom guilt, negative self-talk, or knowing where to draw the line with your kids, this episode will give you encouragement and steps you can start using today.

The world tells us our validation is in our grades, our success, our gifts, our talents, our looks and so many other things. Yet God tells us it's in One and Only place.

Guide:

In this episode of The Faith-Full Mama, we unpack John Calvin’s sobering truth: “The human heart is an idol factory.” I share my own recent journey of stepping away from distractions—social media, work, even food for a short fast—to truly hear God’s still, small voice. Twice now, He’s shown me how easily my heart can latch onto something other than Him… and how quickly that robs me of peace.

We talk about how to recognize when something has become an idol, why it leaves us feeling heavy and unsettled, and how to return to the only One who can give rest for our souls. You’ll be encouraged to trust Him again, obey Him fully, and discover the joy that follows.

If you’ve been feeling burdened or distant from God, this conversation will help you realign your heart and fix your eyes on the One who never tires you out and never lets you down.
