Ep 3. When Life Feels like a dumpster fire - how to move forward with God

In today's episode we're talking about something that feels rare in today's filtered world: transparency in motherhood.

It's easy to look around and believe other moms have it all together—the calm homes, the well-behaved kids, the seamless homeschooling days. But the truth? We're all carrying different struggles. Scripture calls us to learn from one another (Titus 2:3–5) and to bear each other's burdens (Galatians 6:1), not to compete or compare.

I want to share with you about a recent "dumpster fire" day—sibling arguments over muffins, chore delays, monkey wrenches that delayed our plan, schoolwork battles, and the emotional spiral that followed.

We've all been there. The question is: How do we move forward when everything feels like it's falling apart?
