Episode Summary

In this episode I speak to any mom, in any stage of motherhood, who has found herself thinking to herself, 'I'm "just" a mom.

It's true, the day in a life of a mother can have its mundane moments and often we do have a seed of desire in our hearts for more or at times something different than is currently happening, It's then we can come back to empowerment that you get to think and feel about your vocation, no matter what you choose, have chosen or will choose in the future.

This episode includes a special poem by Emily McDermott that sums up beautiful thoughts on what it means to be "just" a mom.
