360. Striving in Motherhood: How to Stop Comparing and Controlling Your Kids. Part 1.

Do you ever catch yourself believing your child’s behavior or performance is a direct reflection of you as a mom? Maybe you compare how quickly they’re learning to read or how many words they’re saying with the kids around them. Or maybe, when they act out, you feel like you’ve failed—and the yelling, controlling, and striving begins. Striving in motherhood is sneaky. It shows up in the way we compare, the way we push, and the way we try to control our kids—often because we’re carrying pressure that God never asked us to carry. In this episode, I walk you through how striving sneaks into motherhood, the damage it causes, and most importantly, how to step into peace, freedom, and trust in God as you raise your kids. love, Brittany Ready to go deeper?
