  When You Don't Feel Like Yourself: Honoring the Seasons When Your Voice Goes Quiet

  Aug 14, 202623 minS4

  In this raw, unedited episode, Marci is talking honestly about what happened when my voice went quiet. For two weeks, she didn’t release a podcast episode. Not because she had nothing to say, but because what she had to say wasn't available to her. Marci was carrying some heavy sadness. She had used a lot of creative energy on other projects. And honestly, she was discouraged. Marci had released a previous episode she believed was one of her strongest, shared clips from it on social media, and was met with very little response. In the past, Marci might have pushed through, forced herself to produce something, and called that discipline. But she's been practicing how to listen. In this episode, Marci talks about the difference between avoidance and honoring yourself, between lovingly stretching yourself and overriding what your nervous system and inner world may actually need. Marci also explores what happens when you stop making a temporary lack of energy, motivation, creativity, or capacity mean something about who you are. You’ll hear encouragement to ask yourself: Am I avoiding something that needs courage, or is something inside me genuinely asking to be heard? What am I making this season mean about me? What would it look like to stay in relationship with myself instead of judging or forcing myself? Can I let discouragement be present without abandoning myself because of it? Sometimes your voice doesn’t come back because you finally found the perfect thing to say. Sometimes it comes back when you give yourself permission to tell the truth about why it went quiet. If you’ve been feeling discouraged, disconnected, creatively drained, emotionally tired, or like you should be doing more than you currently have capacity for, this episode is for you.

  Who Are You, Really? How to Stop Letting Roles, Labels, and Circumstances Define You

  Jul 31, 202637 minS4

  Who are you beneath the roles you perform, the circumstances you have experienced, and the labels other people have given you? As women, it is easy to describe ourselves by what we do or what has happened to us: mother, wife, caregiver, divorced, single, shy, anxious, responsible, or the one who holds everything together. But those roles and labels are not really who you are. In this episode of The Courageous and Confident Christian Mom , Marci explores the powerful difference between your roles and your identity . Your roles exist outside of you. They describe positions you hold, responsibilities you carry, and seasons you have lived through. Your identity lives inside of you—in your heart, values, character, faith, compassion, courage, resilience, and eternal worth. Marci also shares a beautiful moment from her Come Home to Your Heart masterclass. After exploring a list of personal characteristics, one woman recognized how deeply she had identified with the labels “shy,” “divorced,” and “single mom.” Through years of healing and coaching, she came to understand that those labels described parts of her experience, but they did not define who she was. In this episode, you will learn: The difference between a role, circumstance, label, and identity How labels can quietly shape your self-concept and self-worth Why something that was once true about you does not have to remain your identity How to recognize the qualities that reflect who you truly are Why reconnecting with your identity is an important part of self-love and emotional healing You are not merely what you have done, what you have survived, or what someone else decided to call you. You are so much more. This episode will help you look beneath the roles and begin coming home to the woman who has been there all along. Episode Website

  Why You Feel Guilty Resting: The Part That Will Not Let You Slow Down

  Jul 17, 202635 minS4

  Do you ever finally have time to rest, but instead of relaxing, you feel guilty, restless, or like you should be doing something productive? In this episode, Marci Owen explores why rest can feel so hard for women who are used to carrying responsibility, managing everyone’s needs, staying productive, and pushing through exhaustion. Using a personal story from her retreat, Marci shares how even in a quiet, beautiful space, a part of her wanted to maximize every minute, make the retreat meaningful, and turn rest into another thing to accomplish. This episode will help you understand the protective part of you that believes slowing down is unsafe, selfish, lazy, or irresponsible. Instead of judging yourself for not being able to relax, you will learn how to get curious about what is happening inside you and begin creating a safer relationship with rest. If you struggle with rest guilt, burnout, overdoing, people-pleasing, productivity pressure, or feeling like you always have to earn your right to slow down, this conversation will help you feel seen and supported. You will learn: Why rest can feel unsafe to your nervous system How productivity can become a protective pattern Why slowing down may bring up guilt, fear, or discomfort How to talk compassionately to the part of you that cannot rest What it means to receive instead of constantly produce You are not bad at resting. A part of you may simply need to learn that rest is safe now.

  Nothing Is Blooming Yet: Trusting Your Growth When You Feel Stuck

  Jul 10, 202629 minS4

  Have you ever looked at your life and wondered if anything is actually changing? You have been doing the inner work. You have been praying, trying, learning, healing, showing up, and working on yourself. But maybe your relationship is still hard, anxiety still shows up, your circumstances have not changed, or the thing you are hoping for has not happened yet. It can be easy to decide that nothing is working. But what if something important is growing beneath the surface? In this episode, Marci Owen shares her insights about a wildflower corner, an agave plant, and the reminder that not all growth is visible right away. Some seasons are not about blooming. Some seasons are about building roots. Marci talks about why women often measure their growth only by visible outcomes and how that can keep them stuck in self-criticism, comparison, impatience, and discouragement. She offers a new way to recognize the quiet signs of healing that may already be happening inside you. You may not have the flower yet. But that does not mean you are not growing. In this episode, you will learn: Why visible results are not the only evidence of personal growth How nervous system healing and inner work often happen quietly What “root work” looks like in real life Why impatience and self-criticism can interrupt your healing process How to recognize the small signs that you are becoming more steady, self-trusting, and emotionally resilient If you are in a slow season, a healing season, or a season where nothing seems to be blooming yet, this episode will help you honor the growth that is taking place beneath the surface. Your quiet growth still counts.

  Jul 3, 202629 minS4

  July 3 Have you been telling yourself that you will enjoy your life more when things calm down? When the house is cleaner, the kids need less, your schedule opens up, your body feels better, your relationships improve, or you finally feel caught up? In this episode, Marci Owen shares a heartfelt reminder for women who are tired of living in management mode, waiting for the “perfect season,” or pre-grieving moments before they are even over. Drawing from recent family time, a Yellowstone trip, summer memories, and the small moments that often matter most, Marci explores why so many women struggle to stay present in their own lives.

In this episode, you will learn: Why waiting for life to calm down can become a protective pattern The difference between managing your life and actually living it How anxiety and overthinking can pull you out of the present moment Why you may pre-grieve meaningful experiences before they are over A simple practice to help you return to what is happening right now If you are a Christian mom or midlife woman who feels overwhelmed, emotionally tired, anxious, or disconnected from the goodness in your own life, this episode will help you slow down, breathe, and come back to yourself. 🌟 Useful Links & Resources from Marci ✨ 3 Secrets to Instantly Feel Better Scroll to the bottom of this page for quick, powerful tips to shift your emotional state fast. 💖 Join the Self Love YOUniversity A supportive space where Christian women learn to love themselves deeply, show up confidently, and live with purpose. 👉 Click here to enroll or learn more 🧭 Book a FREE Clarity Call Want to feel more grounded, calm, and confident—starting now?
