Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2471443/fan_mail/new] In this episode, Dr. Glenda Bailey-Hayden joins us to talk about what it really means for moms to slow down and care for themselves — not as an afterthought, but as the foundation for a healthy, purpose-filled family life. We dig into the power of pausing, why modeling healthy choices matters more than we realize, and how renewing the mind can shift the way moms show up for themselves and their families.

Through the Eyes of a Father

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2471443/fan_mail/new] Yes.... I'm still honoring father's even though Father's Day has passed.  Father's Day looks different when you're co-parenting. This week, I stepped back and handed the mic to the fathers of my children — and asked them one simple question:  What does Fatherhood really mean to you? What came back was honest. It was real. And it reminded me why these conversations are important to have. . In this episode, you'll hear directly from my son's dad and my husband— unfiltered and in their own words — what fatherhood feels like from where they're standing.  I'll leave listeners with a reflection question to think about and we'll close out with a Father's Day prayer over every dad listening. This one is for the dads. Share it with the father in your child's life.

Mama, Where Are You on the List? Stop Micromanaging and Start Living

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2471443/fan_mail/new] Have you ever sat down and written a list of everyone who matters to you — only to realize you never made the list? In this powerful conversation, Jamie Newton-Knight sits down with Certified Biblical Life Coach, author, and speaker Nicole Hicks to talk about the parts of motherhood no one warns you about: the loss of self, the weight of doing it all, and the freedom that comes when you finally let go. From learning to release control (even when the lunch box is packed 'wrong') to understanding that parenting is one of the greatest faith walks you'll ever take — this episode is equal parts conviction, encouragement, and permission. Permission to rest. Permission to ask for help. Permission to still be YOU. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT * Why mothers struggle to ask for help — and what that says about control and trust * The danger of micromanaging your partner or co-parent (even with good intentions) * How Nicole went from a life-threatening medical crisis to founding Faith Over Fear Biblical Life Coaching * The exercise that revealed none of us put ourselves on the priority list * Why "mom" is a role you play, not who you are * Releasing mom guilt and reclaiming your identity outside of motherhood * Parenting as a faith walk — and why you can't rescue your children from every hard thing * The power of never stopping prayer, even when (especially when) it's hard ABOUT THIS WEEK'S GUEST Coach Nicole Hicks is a Certified Biblical Life Coach, author, and speaker who helps women navigate life's challenges with faith, strategy, and intention. As the founder of Faith Over Fear Biblical Life Coaching, Nicole is passionate about supporting women — especially mothers — as they balance the demands of everyday life while staying rooted in their faith.
