When You Feel Lost in Motherhood: Reclaiming Your Identity

It's easy for moms to feel like their entire identity is wrapped up in their roles. Wife. Mom. Employee. Volunteer. Caregiver. But who are you beyond those roles? In this episode, we're talking about something many moms quietly struggle with: losing themselves in the responsibilities of motherhood. While our roles are meaningful and important, they aren't the full picture of who we are.

This episode offers simple, realistic ideas for busy moms with young children who want to reconnect with their faith, take small steps toward better health, and keep growing mentally—even in the middle of busy family life. If you've ever felt like you've disappeared behind the title of "mom," this conversation is for you.
