In this deeply honest and hope-filled episode, I sit down with my dear friend Bridget to talk about her journey through postpartum depression, anxiety, and miscarriage — and how her faith in Christ carried her through some of the darkest seasons of her life.

Bridget shares what it felt like to walk through overwhelming emotional struggles, moments of hopelessness, and the fear of hitting rock bottom — only to discover that Christ is the rock beneath our feet, even when we feel like we’re falling.

Together, we talk about:

• What postpartum depression and anxiety can really feel like for Christian moms

• Navigating miscarriage and grief while trying to keep going

• Why struggling does not mean you are broken or failing

• How Christ descends below all things so He can lift us up

• Finding hope, healing, and grace in seasons when faith feels fragile

This conversation is for any mom who has felt overwhelmed, lost, or afraid that she’s not doing enough — or that she’s somehow alone in her pain. Bridget’s story is a reminder that even when heaven feels quiet, God is still near, and we are never falling alone.

If you are walking through postpartum mental health challenges, grief after miscarriage, or a season of deep emotional struggle, this episode offers compassion, understanding, and a gentle reminder that healing is possible — one step, one prayer, one breath at a time.

Mama, if worry feels like your constant companion, you’re not alone. Motherhood brings real pressures, real fears, and real mental load… but God never intended for you to carry it all by yourself.

In today’s episode, we’re walking through 6 Christ-centered ways to stop worrying and step into God’s peace, inspired by both Scripture and timeless wisdom from Dale Carnegie’s classic How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. (That book changed my life — and today, those tools are here to bless you too.)

We’ll talk about: ✨ Why worry drains your mind, body, and spirit ✨ The simple teachings of Jesus about focusing on today instead of tomorrow ✨ How to stop replaying fears, future “what ifs,” and past regrets ✨ Practical, peaceful steps to calm your mind when it starts spiraling ✨ How gratitude, truth, and surrender actually restore emotional peace ✨ How trusting God (with the things you can’t control) brings real relief

If your heart has been heavy… If your mind has been loud… If you’re craving peace you can feel… This episode will meet you right where you are.

Jesus showed us how to live one day at a time — with trust, with presence, and with peace. Let’s learn to follow that example together, Mama. 💛
