97. Nothing Humbles You Quite Like Your Kids

We would love to hear from you! Text us any feedback. What happens when you ask your kids what you do that makes them cringe?For this episode, the answer came from a simple phrase: “my mama heart.” What started as a funny conversation with a daughter turned into a much bigger realization... of course our kids don’t fully understand the mama heart yet. They haven’t experienced one.Motherhood changes the way a heart operates. We feel their disappointments, celebrate their wins, worry about things completely outside of our control, and sometimes find ourselves wanting to step in and fix what may not actually be ours to fix.This episode explores the joy, worry, pride, fear, letting go, and deep love that come with a mama heart, along with four practical reminders for navigating it all:• Name what you’re actually carrying.• Ask, “Is this mine to carry?”• Don’t confuse feeling it with fixing it.• Give your mama heart somewhere to put it all.From knowing when to step in and when to simply stand close, to learning to surrender the things we cannot control, this conversation is a reminder that we can love our children deeply without carrying everything for them.And maybe that phrase our kids think is a little cringey? Someday, they’ll understand. Show Resources:Praying the Scriptures for Your Children:https://amzn.to/4ysaJqKPraying the Scriptures for Your Teens:https://amzn.to/3UyziDNPraying the Scriptures for Your Adult Children:https://amzn.to/4A7fnw0JOIN ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Follow Along @ - https://www.instagram.com/nikkicronksmith/
