  Sep 30, 20261h 1mS2

  What Every Christian Mom Can Learn from Catholic Family Rhythms: Sacraments, Rosary, Advent Lent & Daily Discipleship with Megan Wells In this motherhood podcast episode, host Michelle interviews Catholic mom Megan Wells about Catholic traditions and how they shape marriage and family life. Megan shares her cradle-Catholic upbringing, her husband Avery’s non-denominational background, his conversion in June 2019, and how shared faith supports their marriage while he’s away for training and they raise four young kids. They discuss sacraments (especially the Eucharist), confession, meal and bedtime prayers, and simple “Holy Spirit come” breath prayers. Megan explains practical home discipleship habits like praying when ambulances pass, using Catholic art and crucifixes at home, hosting a monthly rosary brunch, and what the rosary is and how it’s prayed. They also cover Advent and Lent rhythms with kid-friendly traditions, how to avoid “checkbox” religion, encouragement for moms to prioritize daughterhood before God, spiritual direction, hospitality/meal trains, and recommended resources like Catholic Answers, The Heart of Perfection, and Be Healed. Connect with Megan: Megan Wells is a born and raised Catholic that pursued the entrepreneurship route during college instead of the 9-5. She's a US Marine wife to her husband Avery, a stay at home mama to 4, a professional photographer at Megan Aaron Photography, co-host of the podcast What In The Dang Heck, social seller, and home birth advocate.

  What Every Christian Mom Can Learn From an Empty Nester: How to Build a Relationship With Your Kids That Lasts with Jill Wagner [Ep 52]

  Sep 16, 202646 minS2

  What Every Christian Mom Can Learn From an Empty Nester Building Lifelong Relationships with Your Kids: Empty-Nest Wisdom with Jill Wagner The Mommin’ Together podcast introduces a new series and a conversation with Jill Wagner, a mom of four in the empty-nest stage, about parenting with the long view so adult kids still want closeness. Jill shares her family story (married at 17; three biological children and adopting Hakeem at 13) and where her adult children are now, many living nearby with growing families. She emphasizes enjoying the years, not sweating small stuff, being fun but holding high standards, and building trust through everyday “little moments.” Key practices include responding rather than reacting, making what matters to kids matter to you, apologizing and repairing, choosing words carefully, creating a welcoming home, and fostering open conversations about taboo topics. Jill notes giving kids grace and respect, learning to step back with adult children, and she wishes she’d done more family worship time. Her core advice: kids don’t need a perfect mom—just a real one. 00:00 Series Kickoff 00:34 Why Adult Bonds Matter 01:02 Meet Jill Wagner 01:44 Jill’s Motherhood Story 02:43 Kids Today and Grandkids 03:59 Keeping Them Close 05:48 Empty Nest Perspective 07:52 How Kids Remember You 11:55 Traits That Build Trust 16:20 Respond Don’t React 21:34 Hard Talks and Careful Words 23:27 Letting Safe Rebellion Happen 24:19 Egg Therapy Emotions 25:29 Calm Down Spaces 27:05 Open Talks Boundaries 29:17 Kids Feedback Parenting 33:45 Dad Loss Family Values 35:20 Home They Return To 41:11 Grace Backseat Parenting 43:22 Resources Final Takeaways About Jill: Jill Wagner is a wife of 25 years to Brian and a mom of 3 boys, 1 daughter, and 1 daughter in law aging from 20-26 years old.

In 2020 during the pandemic she decided to put herself out on social media sharing her family life along with the vulnerability of the struggles of teen pregnancy, marriage, addiction, infidelity, weight, and empty nesting. She has grown a following of over 2 million on her platforms and strives to help women find their voice as they choose to live in a place of courage instead of shame.

  How to Set Healthy Boundaries Without Mom Guilt | with Adrianne Miller [Ep 51]

  Aug 26, 202652 minS2

  How to Set Healthy Boundaries Without Mom Guilt | with Adrianne Miller Host Michelle Barnett welcomes listeners to the Mommin’ Together podcast and interviews mom and speaker Adrianne Miller about setting healthy boundaries. Adrianne shares her background, including counseling and ministry with new moms, and defines boundaries as a “fence with a gate,” not an impenetrable wall. They discuss how unmet, often “sneaky,” expectations drive frustration and how guilt, obligation, and fear (“FOG”) can lead moms to overcommit and be walked over. Adrianne offers practical tools: reflecting on “me, we, they” (self, spouse, others), asking clarifying questions to surface expectations, and using “drive-through speak” to repeat back what was heard during conflict. They address navigating grandparents and generational differences with grace, communicating the “why,” and discerning when repeated hurt may require stronger limits or space. Adrianne’s mom advice is to be consistent, avoid survival decisions, and parent with the long-term goal of raising future adults. About Adrianne: Adrianne Miller is a wife and mom of 3 boys residing in Tyler, Texas. She shares her experience and knowledge on boundaries from walking her own journey and receiving biblical counseling to help her work through boundaries as a mom.

  Talking to Your Kids About Sex and Gender Without Fear | A Christian Parent's Guide Host Michelle Barnett welcomes Amber Garrett Carroll, vice president of the Nashville nonprofit Equip and author of Ready to Talk: A Christian Parent’s Guide to Gender and Sexuality, to discuss how Christian parents can talk with kids about sex, sexuality, and gender without fear while staying rooted in historic Christian sexual ethics. Amber explains why parents are primary disciplers, outlines a biblical framework of intimacy within lifelong family through marriage or vocational singleness, and distinguishes temptation, sin, and brokenness, urging sexual stewardship and avoiding shame. They address identity language, assumptions about marriage and attraction, and practical guidance for starting early with age-appropriate conversations, including screen safety and pornography preparation. Amber offers counsel for responding to children disclosing same-sex attraction or gender incongruence, navigating pronouns with discernment, preserving relationships, and prioritizing the gospel, and shares a mom hack: use short car rides for hard conversations. 00:00 Welcome to Mommin Together 00:31 Why This Topic Matters 02:10 Meet Amber and Her Mission 04:42 Pain to Purpose Story 06:53 Parents as Disciplers 09:15 Gods Design for Intimacy 15:30 Temptation Sin and Brokenness 22:15 Identity and Language Nuance 30:39 Fearless Conversations at Home 32:22 Do It Scared 33:08 Many Talks Not One 34:48 Start Young Foundations 35:46 Screen Safety Basics 37:09 Porn Talks By Eight 38:49 Puberty Curiosity Guidance 40:37 Homes Without Shame 41:10 Drop Hidden Assumptions 44:46 Praying Without Idolatry 47:24 Talking LGBT With Grace 49:27 Beyond Language Debates 52:18 Pronouns As Hospitality 53:52 Trans Culture Context 56:34 No Blanket Answer 58:34 Mirroring Example Story 01:01:26 Discernment By Relationship 01:03:04 Jesus And The Outcast 01:03:41 Truth Versus Lying 01:04:18 Pronoun Compromises 01:06:33 Parenting LGBT Disclosures 01:09:06 Dos and Dont's List 01:13:19 Language and New Terms 01:15:40 Avoid Forced Choices 01:18:04 Guidance for Trans Kids 01:23:13 Adult Trans Child Repair 01:30:05 Resources and Book Info 01:33:09 Car Ride Mom Hack 01:35:53 Final Encouragement Connect with Amber: Amber Garrett Carroll is the Vice President of Impact and Parent Resources at Equip, where she helps Christian parents and churches disciple kids according to God’s wisdom for sex, sexuality, and gender.
