Jeannie Cunnion is back on the show with a powerful message that reminds us that we are NEVER ALONE. As believers we always have the Holy Spirit with us and Jeannie shares how to deepen your understanding of the Holy Spirit and come to know Him as an intimate friend and companion. Not only that, but the Holy Spirit gives us power for the daily grind and holy work of motherhood. She shares about how He is faithfully at work, making the gospel irresistible to our kids and the freedom that comes from not having to do the Holy Spirit’s job for our kids.  “I think that there's a freedom and a frustration that comes with the Holy Spirit. There's freedom because it's like I can not do the Holy Spirit's job. He is going to be the one who sparks their faith, sustains their faith, strengthens them, sanctifies them. That is all his job. But that can also be frustrating because we want to be able to produce that fruit in their life to spare them from the consequences and the pain of sin. I have to remind myself that God loves my kids infinitely more than I ever could imagine and that he longs for them to live in the fullness of his grace and mercy, even more than I do.”  If you are longing to experience the freedom that comes from resting in the Holy Spirit instead of your own strength, this is the episode for you! Jeannie shares more in-depth on this subject in her new Bible study available for pre-orders now, <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Never-Alone-Bible-Parenting-Spirit/dp/108772905X"> Never Alone - Bible Study Book: Parenting in the Power of the Holy Spirit</a>.

Parenting in the Power of the Holy Spirit :: Jeannie Cunnion [Ep 347]

Many women feel lost in their marriages. They don't know what to do with their disappointment, when to ask for help, or what it looks like to let go of the need to control. But God has given women incredible power in marriage and Dr. Juli Slattery is here to help us learn how to use it. Dr. Slattery joins me to discuss key points from her bestselling book <a href= "https://www.authenticintimacy.com/hero">Finding the Hero in Your Husband</a> and about how what we believe about our husbands can make all the difference in the intimacy, connection and health of our marriages.   “There are going to be issues in every marriage that have to be addressed, but it's the relational equity that we build through how we treat our husbands that gives us the power to confront things when they really need to be addressed. And when your husband has come to rely so much on your intimacy and companionship, then the fact that you have a concern really gets his attention because he doesn't want to lose you.” We talk about being emotionally safe for our husbands, stopping the cycle of disappointment and nagging in our marriages, and taking another look at intimacy as a sexual journey to go on with our husbands. It’s. So. GOOD.  If you are in need of a boost of hope and excitement to help you re-engage in your marriage, this episode is for you!

Embracing Your Power in Marriage :: Dr. Juli Slattery [Ep 346]

Jenn Kautsch is an empty nester mom and a retired "grey area" drinker. She takes us into her story of feeling tired, stuck on auto-pilot, and ready for a change when it comes to her relationship with alcohol.  Through her own journey of seeking God about her casual drinking habit that was becoming a toxic mental battle, Jenn stopped asking if her drinking was “bad” for her and reframed it. “So I turned it around and I started asking myself the question, Jenn, is it good enough? Is your drinking good enough for you? Is your relationship with drinking, helping you become the best version of yourself? Is it taking you where you really want to go? Is it matching up to your outsides being like your insights or are you walking around with duplicity in a divided mind and a mental tug of war?” After choosing to embrace a sober lifestyle, Jenn started <a href= "https://www.sobersis.com/ss-home">SoberSis</a>,  a like-minded community of women who are renegotiating their relationship with alcohol without labels, shame, judgment or rules. We talk about how God brought her freedom from what felt like a divided life -- constantly feeling in conflict and stuck in an internal tug-of-war so she could live a more wholehearted life. And how she’s now been able to connect with close to 20,000 women from all over the world through her SoberSis community of women.

Sober-Minded Living :: Jenn Kautsch [Ep 345]

As Kayla Craig sat in the hospital watching her daughter have a machine breath for her, she struggled to find the words to pray. In that difficult time in her family’s life, she learned about the power of liturgies which are scripted prayers from scripture. The more she turned to these powerful prayers prayed by Christians from all over the world, the less alone Kayla felt.  Years later, Kayla has created a book with modern liturgies for parents with more than 100 prayers to voice when words are hard to find. “The book of prayers that I have created are just simply prayers that you can borrow, prayers that can become your own. The prayers of another can comfort us and can lift our arms up and we can't lift our arms up. If you don't have the words to pray, take mine.” From everyday struggles like helping your child find friends or thrive in school to larger issues like praying for a brighter world rooted in peace and truth, these pleas and petitions act as a gentle guide, reminding us that while our words may fail, God never does. Stay tuned for about 20 minutes in when Kayla prays a powerful prayer over all of us weary parents! I think you are going to love learning more about liturgies and breath prayers from Kayla. I hope this is just one more tool in your prayer tool belt -- we certainly need all we can get!   Connect with Kayla:  <ul> <li>Website: <a href= "http://www.kaylacraig.com">kaylacraig.com</a> </li> <li>Podcast: <a href= "http://www.upsidedownpodcast.com/">Upside Down Podcast</a></li> <li>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/kaylacraigwriter">facebook.com/kaylacraigwriter</a> </li> <li>Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/kayla_craig/">@kayla_craig</a> & <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/liturgiesforparents/?hl=en">@liturgiesforparents</a> </li> </ul> Links Mentioned:   <ul> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/2ZCa9fn" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">BOOK: To Light Their Way: A Collection of Prayers and Liturgies for Parents</a>  </li> </ul> Featured Sponsors:  <ul> <li>Simply Be Box -- Get your winter box just in time for Christmas.

When You Don't Know What to Pray :: Kayla Craig [Ep 344]

Motherhood can be a time of self-forgetfulness. We pour into our kids, partners, careers and can lose ourselves in the process. One way I’ve rediscovered who God made me to be is learning about my unique color palette and authentic style.  In this week’s episode I chat with House of Colour Consultant, Karen Blanc. She teaches us a bit about color theory based on the work of Johannes Itten. And how based on our natural coloring, each of us harmonize best with either warm or cool colors, then either bright or muted.  “I love to give people permission to embrace something that's very near and dear to them, God's gift to you: your color palette.” We also spend some time talking about the process of discovering your authentic style based on your body architecture and personality. With some combination of styles from the basic six: dramatic, classic, natural, gamine, ingenue or romantic.  My hope is this episode will inspire you that God made you with a light to shine where you are. Through learning more about color and style you can actually spend less energy on “what to wear” and more time being who God made you to be. “To be yourself in a world constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” (Ralph Waldo Emerson).  Connect with Karen:  <ul> <li>Website: <a href= "https://www.houseofcolour.com/stylists-directory/karen-blanc-oakland-nebraska/"> House of Color — Oakland, Nebraska</a></li> <li>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/knowyourWOWcolors">knowyourWOWcolors</a></li> <li>Instagram: <a href= "https://instagram.com/houseofcolour_karenblanc?utm_medium=copy_link"> @houseofcolour_karenblanc</a></li> </ul> Links Mentioned:   <ul> <li><a href= "https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_Itten">Johannes Itten</a> — “<a href= "https://amzn.to/3pL01eX">The Art of Color”</a> (don’t know why it’s so expensive!)</li> <li><a href="https://www.houseofcolour.com/">House of Colour</a>—find a consultant near you</li> <li><a href= "https://instagram.com/houseofcolourdallas?utm_medium=copy_link"> House of Colour—Dallas—Ginny Hudnut</a></li> <li><a href= "https://instagram.com/houseofcolour_erinmorgan?utm_medium=copy_link"> House of Colour—Erin Morgan</a></li> </ul> Featured Sponsors:    <ul> <li>Mathnasium— Whether you’re looking to get your kids back on track or want to ensure they’re staying ahead with their math studies,  find a center near you at <a href= "https://www.mathnasium.com/">mathnasium.com</a> and contact them for a free in center or online consultation.</li> </ul>

Your Unique Color Palette and Authentic Style :: Karen Blanc [Ep 343]

Feeding a baby is stressful enough. Choosing a formula and transitioning to formula doesn't need to be stressful too. Today's guest, Dr. Bridget Young, is a doctor of Perinatal and Pediatric Nutrition with a PhD from Cornell University in Nutritional Science.  She specializes in maternal and child nutrition. Currently she is an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Rochester Medical Center. You can read about her <a href= "https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/pediatrics/young-lab.aspx">active research on infant formula here</a>. In this episode Bridget (her preferred name), mom of two boys, gives advice to the new mom on how to transition from breastmilk to formula (or a new type of formula). She also explains the most important aspect that differentiates one formula from another. I ask her to explain soy formula from hypo-allergenic. And she gives great advice for how to approach your bottle feeds. Most importantly, I'm thankful to connect you with the wealth of information on her website and YouTube channel.

Fed is Best || New Baby Series Pt. 2 :: Dr. Bridget Young [Bonus]

Late nights, milk stained clothes and feeling like you’ll go crazy if your baby spits up that precious breastmilk…. I have been there. We’ve never done an episode specifically on breastfeeding, but I want to provide support to moms who may be in this very isolating time of life. My guests are Certified Lactation Counselor Demetria Martin and Pediatrician Dr. Brittany Odom and they talk us through some of the common hot topics surrounding breastfeeding from supply issues to nighttime feedings and everything else in between.  “Sometimes you don't have a good sense of community around breastfeeding. There are some pediatrician's offices that aren't super breastfeeding friendly. There might be some family members or friends who are not supportive of your breastfeeding journey. You may feel pretty alone when you're kind of starting this out. But give yourself, you know, a pat on the back for how far you have come. Even if it's been a day and a half, that's still a day and a half more than you've done before. So taking those small steps, knowing it is going to be a journey.” Ultimately, we agree that a fed baby is a happy baby, so I hope you understand my heart is not to idealize the breastfeeding journey. Just to provide resources and community so you don’t mom alone as you feed your infants!  (Later this week we will publish a bonus episode featuring another lactation consultant about how to choose the right formula for your family.)

Fed is Best || New Baby Series Pt 1 :: Demetria Martin and Dr. Odom [Ep 342]

Join me as I step into the role of guest on my own show! My friend Courtney Cleveland interviews me and we do go in depth on my first book, Don’t Mom Alone. **<a href= "https://dontmomalone.com/book/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Now available wherever books are sold!**</a> We talk about how being a good mom isn’t about doing everything right to create a set of perfect trophy children–though every mom has felt the pressure to do just that and to do it all on her own. And how asking for help feels like defeat, but when we try to do it all by our own strength, we end up depleted, lonely, and ineffective. We are not meant to do this alone! I believe moms can be empowered by God, supported by others, and connected with their children. With encouragement and insight, you can foster the key relationships you need to be the mom you want to be so we DON’T MOM ALONE.  Links Mentioned:   <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Dont-Mom-Alone-Growing-Relationships-ebook/dp/B08XLRQNFW/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=don%27t+mom+alone&qid=1633602967&sr=8-1"> BOOK: Don’t Mom Alone</a></li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3DuD9nh">BOOK: Good and Angry: Exchanging Frustration for Character...in You and Your Kids!</a> </li> </ul> Featured Sponsors:  <ul> <li>Rothys: Get $20 off your first purchase at <a href= "https://rothys.com/?utm_source=dma&utm_medium=podcast" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">rothys.com/DMA</a></li> <li>BetterHelp: Visit <a href= "https://www.betterhelp.com/get-started/?go=true&transaction_id=102c1889453e7a33d863fd9f824152&utm_source=podcast&utm_campaign=1378&utm_medium=Mac+OS+X&utm_content=&utm_term=dma&not_found=1&gor=start" target="_blank" rel="noopener">betterhelp.com/DMA</a> and as a DMA listener get 10% off your first month. </li> </ul>

Relationships You Need To Be the Mom You Want to Be :: Heather MacFadyen [Ep 341]

In this episode, I’m excited to welcome back <a href= "https://ruthchousimons.com/">Ruth Chou Simons</a>. In her newest book, <a href= "https://ruthchousimons.com/whenstrivingscease/">When Strivings Cease</a>, Ruth invites us to rethink our preoccupation with approval and the striving that comes because we feel like we’re forever missing the mark. It offers a deeper, abiding understanding of what God’s generous, unmerited favor really accomplishes in and through us when we receive the gift of grace. As a mom of six boys, an author and an entrepreneur, Ruth shares from her experience of feeling like she needed to strive to move forward as a creator and how learning to trust God through the experience of mothering in the little years made all the difference.  “Sometimes I feel like a late bloomer, but there's no such thing in God's timing and God's economy of ideas and opportunities. And those 10 years of changing diapers and just keeping my children alive felt like things were happening so slowly. But God taught me more in the slow waiting, hidden moments of a season that didn't look the way I wanted it to. And those things are fruitful. They've created the fruit that you see now.” We talk about how to reset when you feel striving taking over, how to stop ourselves from demanding perfection/striving from our kids and how to preach truth to ourselves when we need to be reminded that we can trust God instead of living in fear.  Connect with Ruth:  <ul> <li>Website: <a href= "https://ruthchousimons.com/">ruthchousimons.com</a>  </li> <li>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/gracelaced">facebook.com/gracelaced</a> </li> <li>Instagram:  <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ruthchousimons/">@ruthchousimons</a> </li> </ul> Links Mentioned:   <ul> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3Ffvrz5" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">BOOK: When Strivings Cease</a> </li> <li><a href= "https://dontmomalone.com/2014/05/05/ruth-simons-ep-23/"> [EP 23] Beauty creator.

For the Mom Tired of Striving:: Ruth Chou Simons [Ep 340]

Sometimes you have to preach truth to yourself when the days are long and you feel inadequate. And oftentimes we need a friend or two to point out the truth. Jamie Ivey is on the podcast today to be that friend for us. She brings us into her personal struggles as a mom and reminds us that we aren’t alone in the struggle. “It brings me so much comfort that God is not surprised by our diagnoses. He is not surprised by our families. He's not surprised by our struggles. He's not surprised by our insecurities, but he is a God who's willing and ready to be with us in the midst of those.” If you need a reminder that God made you to have your kids. He made your kids to be who they are with all their abilities and challenges. And he didn’t just create us and stand away distanced as we struggle in life. This episode is for you.  We talk about Jamie’s new children’s book <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/God-Made-You-Be/dp/1087734665">God Made You to Be You</a>, but dive much deeper into what that message can mean to us as moms and how we can encourage our kids as they relate to others who are different than them.  Connect with Jamie:  <ul> <li>Website:  <a href= "https://www.jamieivey.com/">jamieivey.com</a> </li> <li>Facebook: <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/TheJamieIvey/">facebook.com/TheJamieIvey</a> </li> <li>Instagram:  <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jamieivey/">@jamieivey</a></li> </ul> Links Mentioned:   <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/God-Made-You-Be/dp/1087734665">Book: God Made You to Be You</a></li> <li>More at <a href= "https://www.jamieivey.com/kids">jamieivey.com/kids</a> </li> <li><a href= "https://dontmomalone.com/2018/01/29/a-safe-place-to-share-messy-stories-jamie-ivey-ep-191/"> [Ep 191] A Safe Place to Share Messy Stories :: Jamie Ivey </a></li> </ul> Featured Sponsors:  <ul> <li>Mathnasium — Whether you are looking to get your kids back on track or want to ensure they’re staying ahead with their math studies, find a center near you at <a href= "https://www.mathnasium.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">mathnasium.com</a> and contact them for a free in center or online consultation. </li> <li>StoryWorth — StoryWorth is a meaningful gift you and your family can treasure forever.
