Parenting Has Less to do With Your Kids Than You Think
Description
What if the thing that needs to change in your home isn't your kids?
In this episode, we're talking about the part of motherhood no one warns you about: how parenting exposes our own hearts. The impatience, the need for control, the stories we keep telling ourselves. But here's the good news. If motherhood is shaping us first, that means we can change, and our homes will follow.
We'll talk about how your brain shows you whatever you keep repeating to it and how God uses these everyday moments to grow us. You'll walk away with three simple questions to bring into your hardest moments this week.
In this episode:
- Why parenting isn't really about managing kids
- How the stories you tell yourself shape what you see in your home
- What your triggers might be trying to tell you
- How God uses motherhood to refine our hearts
- 3 questions to ask yourself this week
Scriptures mentioned:
- Luke 6:45
- Psalm 139:23–24
- Philippians 1:6
