    Show notes

    I’ve got Laura DiLeonardi on the show and friends you’re going to be so encouraged by this girl. She’s given up her people, her position, and her place multiple times and has had to learn to trust Jesus as she finds a new people in each new place the Lord brings her. We talk all about the importance of community as a mom and how we were never meant to walk this journey alone. We defeat the enemy when we do life with other moms. The enemy wants you isolated, overwhelmed, exhausted, and discouraged.

Laura is the founder of Agape Moms, a national network of missional communities for mothers.

    54: Home birth or Hospital birth? Navigating your options on where to have a baby! Apr 24, 2024
    Show notes

    Hi Friend!

    Today, on the show I’m going to go deeper into this topic of WHERE we choose to have our babies, the state of maternity care in the US, and deep dive into the pros and cons of out of hospital birth vs. hospital birth.

    And you may be thinking to yourself right now… why the heck is this important?

    Because, my friend, first of all if you’re pregnant or a mom in a season of growing her family you’ve been called to be a critical thinker.

    Choosing WHERE you’re going to have a baby is THE BIGGEST. Hear me – BIGGEST and most important decision you’re going to make in pregnancy. Did you hear that?

    THE MOST IMPORTANT. Because WHERE you choose to have your baby is going to determine the TYPE of care provider you’re going to have.

    Buckle up my friends. I’m going to break it down for you and tell you all about your options.
    xo,

    Alise

    53: Expecting Grace: Learning to Navigate Unexpected Challenges in Birth with Hayley Clements Apr 09, 2024
    Show notes

    Hi Friend!

    Today, I have a sweet conversation to share with you where I interview wife and mama Hayley Clements on the show! Hayley is currently pregnant with her 3rd baby and preparing for an out of hospital birth. She shares her story of navigating an unexpected diagnosis of a complete cleft lip and palate with her first baby, and an unexpected shoulder dystocia with her 2nd birth. She shares about how she’s learning to overcome her fears of labor, and everything she’s doing to prepare for the birth of this third baby!

    We talk about how to prepare for postpartum, and it’s not what you might think. We have a great conversation about how to prepare your marriage for the addition of another baby. It’s so good!

    I pray you’re encouraged and equipped as you listen!

    51: 3 Steps to Achieving Joy in the Unseen parts of Motherhood Mar 01, 2024
    Show notes

    Today the Lord has put something on my heart I’m so eager to share with you. If you’re new here, you may not know this yet, but this show is often an extension of my time with Jesus and all that he’s speaking to my heart in this season. So, I invite you to come alongside me and listen to what the Lord might have for you today. Be expectant my friend, for what the Lord wants to speak to you today.


    Waiting is so hard. And waiting well is even harder. Motherhood has positioned us to learn how to wait well. To have patience. Some of us wait to find the perfect spouse. We long for companionship and relationships. Others of us wait for years to get pregnant and experience a baby growing inside of us. All of us who have given birth before know the 9 months of waiting we journey through as we expectantly anticipate the arrival of our babies. But, before the best gift of new life arrives we walk through labor and test our endurance and fortitude in a way like never before. It makes the waiting worth it. Would we find as much satisfaction in our new baby if we didn’t have to go through labor? If we didn’t have to endure such a challenge before us. Let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. Hebrews 12:2

    Friend, I’m going to give you 3 tangible ways you can wait well in this season:

    Praise before the breakthrough: when you’re worried = worship. It’s warfare and it’s how you’re going to tell your brain who’s boss. Your spirit has got to get out in front. Let your spirit worship and your brain will catch up later.

    Keep his promises in front of you: journal, write them down. Put them where you will see them often. Keep them out in front of you.

    Tell someone about what you are waiting for: Ask this person to encourage you, to remind you of what the Lord has spoken over you. To pray over you when your spirit is weak. It will keep you accountable. You’ve been given the body of christ for a reason. Find that friend who’s going to encourage you to wait well and not lose heart.
