In this episode, Morgan joins us to share her story of loss and healing.

Morgan was pregnant with a baby girl who was diagnosed with Turner syndrome early on, and unfortunately passed away during pregnancy. We talk about the details of Morgan's pregnancy and birth, how she and her family are learning to cope with their grief, and how her faith has allowed her to heal and have hope. We know there are so many moms who have been through similar experiences and we are so grateful for Morgan's willingness to share her story!

We all know that as moms, we are our kids biggest cheerleaders, but that role often extends beyond just our own children. We are happy to have our friend Staci with us to talk about all the ways she loves and supports the children in her life. She shares the amazing story of how two of her students became her foster daughters and then adopted daughters.

Today we are talking with our friend Monica all about the ups and downs of the first decade of marriage- figuring out kids, careers, money, marriage, and all that. Monica and Heidi both had very similar experiences in their first few years of marriage trying to enjoy motherhood while putting their spouse through school. In this episode they discuss how they stayed positive through all the hard parts of early marriage and motherhood as they were still figuring out life with their husbands!

In this episode, Emily shares her story of moving across the country away from all of her friends and family, with just her husband and her 5 month old baby girl! She talks about the highs and lows of being in a new place, how she was able to get out of the house and socialize with other moms, and the importance of forming relationships with the people around you.

Lauren joins us this week to share her experience of becoming a step-mom first! She shares everything from going on her first date knowing that he had a son, to stepping into the motherly role before and after marriage, to solving issues with scheduling and communication with all parents involved. Throughout the process, the biggest thing she has learned is- 'You can never have too many people who love the same kid!'

This week, Kennedy joins us to share her experience of unexpectedly becoming a mom, at a time in her life when it was the last thing on her mind. She shares about all of the feelings and emotions she went through- from anger to sadness to guilt to depression- and how she learned that sometimes its okay to not be okay. She learned to trust in God's timing and that things will always work out the way they are supposed to, even if it is not necessarily in your own plans.
