LDS Moms: How to Feel Peace When Your Child’s Choices Don’t Align With Your Faith

https://calendly.com/sherylee-kartchner/25minIf you’ve been doing everything you know to do, praying, showing up, trying to stay strong as a mom, and it still feels heavy, this episode will meet you right where you are.In this episode, we’re talking directly to LDS moms who love their children deeply, but feel heartache when their child’s choices don’t align with their faith. If you’ve ever felt sadness, shame, worry, or even quiet disappointment that lingers in the background of your life, you are not alone, and nothing has gone wrong.This conversation will gently shift the way you understand your emotions. You’ll learn why those heavy feelings are not a sign of failure, but part of your divine human experience. We talk about what it really means to feel your feelings in a way that brings you closer to God, not further away.You’ll also learn the powerful difference between clean pain and dirty pain.Clean pain is the natural grief, sadness, and love that comes from caring deeply. It softens you, refines you, and connects you to God. Dirty pain is the extra layer, the thoughts like “I failed,” “this shouldn’t be happening,” or “what did I do wrong?” that keep you stuck and overwhelmed.When you understand this distinction, everything begins to change.This episode will walk you through a simple, practical tool you can use in real time called “name it to tame it and feel it to heal it.” You’ll learn how to sit with your emotions without letting them take over, so you can feel peace even when your situation hasn’t changed.We also anchor this conversation in faith, with powerful reminders from scripture and church leaders that nothing about your experience disqualifies you. You are still a good mom. You are still worthy. You are still doing better than you think.If you’ve been carrying this quietly, wondering if you’re the only one who feels this way, this episode will remind you that you are not alone, and that peace is possible right here, in the middle of your real life.You don’t need your child to change. You don’t need your situation to change. You just need a new way to experience what’s already here.And that is something you can learn.If you’re ready to take this work deeper, I offer free 25-minute Connection and Peace Calls where we look at your specific situation and help you start feeling relief right away.https://calendly.com/sherylee-kartchner/25minYou are allowed to feel sadness and still be a good mom. You are allowed to feel fear and still trust God. You are allowed to be in the middle of this and still feel peace.I’m so glad you’re here.
