Raising kids who are spiritually, emotionally, and physically healthy is what every parent wants to do, right? But when everyone else seems to be doing it better than we are, it leaves us full of doubt and worry: "Am I doing it right?" "Is what I've done enough?" "Is it my fault they're struggling?"

In comes the mom guilt, mom shame, and mom burnout, which can show up whether you're surrounded by toddlers or teens, or many years into sitting on an empty nest.

But they don't have to!

Today, author and podcaster Alli Worthington gives some straight talk to all the moms about what happens when you carry the "motherload" and start believing the "good mom" myths. She'll not only build your confidence as a parent, but also help you break free from the pressure you were never intended to carry.

It's time to rediscover the beauty and joy in the sacred art of motherhood, which viewed through the lens of the gospel is grace-filled and guilt-free.
