106: Going from Chaos to Calm & How Rhythms Restore Order Oct 04, 2023

Show notes

If you feel like a hot mess mom... if things are constantly spiraling out of control and you wish you had more order in your life or just felt more calm (first of all.. SAME), but I'm glad you're here because today is for you (for both of us)! We're going to take a spiritual look at why this matters and how rhythms can restore order to the chaos of our everyday lives as moms. Connecting these dots has helped me see motherhood in a whole new way. God brings order from chaos. It's part of his character. We see this throughout Scripture. And He invites us to partner with Him in calming chaos every single day. I'm glad you're here, friend!

2 lies the enemy had me convinced of for forever!
how to push through tension and escape survival mode
what happens when we don't choose to change, but stay where we're at
living with hope and expectancy in seasons of tension
