Episode 45: Finding Your True Worth with Stefani Pady   How often do we miss the value of who we are and what we have, looking around us for worth versus lwho God's developing us into through our lives?   In this episode, I sit down with an incredible woman, Stefani Pady to talk about the wrestle we all feel but may not say out loud: Am I enough?

What happens when the role that's shaped so much of your life changes right before your eyes?   In this episode, I’m continuing a conversation I started last episode and it's one that hits close to home. We're digging into a reality that not many of us like to face but, it continues to be the truth. It's the reality that being a mom has shaped much of our purpose and identity but as our kids grow,...

What if some of the most beautiful moments in motherhood are also the ones that quietly break your heart?   In this episode, I’m opening up about a side of motherhood we don’t talk about nearly enough—the tension of loving our children deeply while grieving the fact that time keeps moving forward. From kindergarten graduations to lost baby teeth and changing seasons, every milestone carries both j...

That moment after you yell can feel unbearable. The guilt hits fast, the shame gets loud, and suddenly you’re questioning everything about yourself as a mom. But what if the real damage isn’t the mistake… it’s staying stuck in condemnation afterward?    In this episode, I’m talking honestly about what to do after the blow up. Not with perfection, pretending, or pushing it under the rug — but with...

The mother-daughter relationship is complex. Whether you're a girl mom or you have a conflicted relationship with your own mom, this is a topic most women understand, but don't vocalize.   Through my own work, and from working with other women on this topic, it's clear that thing that hits a nerve by your daughter is actually revealing something deeper.   In this episode, I’m having a very honest...

Episode 38: Believe Bigger w/ Miss Mississippi ‘25, Anna Leah Jolly   What if the life God is calling you into is bigger than the story you believe about what's possible?   In this episode, I sit down with Anna Leah Jolly—Miss Mississippi 2025—for a powerful conversation about faith, family, leadership, and what it looks like to keep saying yes to God despite your circumstances.   Anna Leah is an...

What if the breakthrough, the energy, the peace, etc you’re craving is on the other side of the very thing you resist the most?   Rest. Stillness. Slowing Down.   In this episode, I’m sharing from a personal revelation God showed me as I've been in a forced season of slowing down after surgery. It checked me- and in the best way (as He seems to do!).   I had this moment where I realized...before H...

There's more to your story than staying stuck in cycles of pain from the past. You think there's something wrong with you but what if it's actually a sign? A yearning from your heart that says, there’s something here that you’ve never given a voice?    In this honest conversation, I sit down with my friend and mentor, Karrie Garcia, and we go deep into the kind of healing most of us would rather a...

Episode 34: Q2 Goal Setting for Growth: The Reflection Practice That Builds True Authority   Thinking about goals for Q2? Before you add more to your list- or feel discouraged by the ones still on it- I want to invite you to try something different.   What if the breakthrough you're looking for isn’t in doing MORE, but in finally recognizing how far you’ve already come? Instead of jumping straight...

What if the pressure you feel… isn’t actually about doing more—but about proving something you were never meant to earn?    In this episode, I’m unpacking a conversation that stirred something deep in me after the Worthy Woman Summit. Many of us are quietly carrying this weight of performance pressure, approval-seeking, and feeling unworthy no matter how much we do or how 'fine' we seem.   We're d...

Tell me if this feels familiar: Everyday is a race. You wake-up and before your feet hit the floor, your to-do list has taken over your thoughts and you already feel behind. You stay constantly busy, it feels productive but when the day's over, you don't feel like you've gained any ground. It's like swimming against the current. No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to do enough to feel...

Ever feel like you’re doing all the “right” things—planning, preparing, thinking ahead—but somehow you’re still not moving forward? Yeah… I’ve been there too. And what I’ve realized is this: what feels like responsibility might actually be the very thing keeping you stuck.   In this episode, I’m getting real about overthinking—how it shows up in motherhood, leadership, and everyday decisions—and w...

It's already March and I be you're feeling it too. I’m talking about the undercurrent of panic that you're behind, missing the mark and you wonder 'what's wrong with me?' If you've felt the anxiety and slip back into pressuring yourself to do more, stay tuned. We're talking about it here.   March is a transition month. It symbolizes spring and brings hope that the long, cold, dark winter is finall...

Y'all get ready for a powerhouse episode! I had the honor of speaking with my friend, Amy Ramsey- an incredible leadership mentor and honestly-- just an incredible human being. We couldn't wait to sit down together and the conversation just flowed. Amy dropped so many nuggets of wisdom, ya might need to grab a pen or pull out Notes on your phone!   Amy and I dove into the thing that often stops us...

In this episode, I’m opening up about something many of us feel but don’t always talk about—why intimacy can start to feel harder after marriage, even when love is still there. I share honestly about the emotional layers, hidden triggers, and mindset shifts that can impact connection, and how our stories, healing journey, and faith all play a role in the way we show up with our spouse.   We explor...

Episode 27 - Cold & Flu Season? You Don’t Have to Come into Agreement with That   In this episode, I’m challenging something you may do without even realizing it and that's automatically coming into agreement with things like illness, with your words. Do you say things like 'well it's going around so we're bound to be next' or 'everyone's getting it' and 'it's just that time of year'? If so yo...

Have you ever found yourself doing all the right things—showing up, serving, loving, giving—and still not feeling truly seen or loved?   In this episode, I’m talking about that quiet disappointment so many of us carry in marriage, motherhood, and relationships.

I'm excited to share today's episode with you where I got to chat with my dear friend Brooke Rozmenoski- aka Brooke Rozzie.   Brooke and I met while doing our own deep story work in a coaching program this past fall. Our stories are so powerful and impact every aspect of our lives, including our marriages. We haven't really talked about that here on The BAD Mom Show and it's an area Brooke is pass...

In today’s episode, I’m talking honestly about something we all experience (and complain about) but don't often talk about. I had a moment where the Holy Spirit put me in check and opened my eyes to this question: Are you willing to be inconvenienced? Ouch.   You know those moments. You've likely had at least one of them already today: You cleaned up the house and the kids come make a toy/shoe/sch...

In this episode, I’m talking about something I know so many of us crave these days—real community. After reflecting more on the event I hosted in December, one thing that really hit home was how powerful it is to get in the room. We live in a 'connected' time, but we struggle with feeling more alone and isolated than ever. But that's not how we were created to live. We were made to be in community...
