Episode 41: Trailblazing Motherhood & Ministry with Rev. Natalie

What does it look like to become a mother while serving in the pulpit — especially when no one has gone before you?In this episode, I sit down with Rev. Natalie, who has served local congregations for 17 years. As a young female pastor who became pregnant at 27, she stepped into territory her congregation — and even her supervisor — had never navigated before. With courage and clarity, she helped shape policies and boundaries that made space for maternity leave, paving the way for clergy mothers who followed.Natalie also shares about her deep intellectual hunger for God, her connection to the Divine through music, and the powerful opportunity female clergy have to embody something unexpected in the pulpit. We talk honestly about pastoring while parenting, learning to care for ourselves without guilt, and why Sabbath is essential.To hear more from Natalie, check out her podcast A Church for Daniel.For More Details on my Clergywomen's Retreat, click here: https://revamberlaffey.my.canva.site/
