150 | Maybe I'm Not Cut Out For This After All // Shame Off You

from The Joy Filled Podcast | Christian Motherhood & Encouragement · host Jenna Griffith

I remember dropping to my knees on the nursery floor, sobbing because I couldn't get my own baby to sleep, and thinking: maybe I'm just not cut out for this. This week we're naming the quiet lie almost every mom carries — that a good mom should just know — and the shame that grows when motherhood turns out to have a learning curve. I get honest about that lowest postpartum moment, why a learning curve is not proof you're failing, and the truth that motherhood is learned and Holy Spirit partnered — He fills the gaps you can't. Plus a simple practice for when the lies creep in: name the lie, trace it to the root, trade it for truth, and tend it, over and over again. This is the exact process I walk you through in my new guide, Shame Off You: A Guilt-to-Grace Reset for Moms — 34 pages of prompts, scripture, and encouragement. It's $17 and live right now.
